Coal plants near residential areas
{{#badges:CoalSwarm|Climate change}}
Below is a list of coal-fired power plants in residential areas. (For the purpose of this page, we are defining as plant as being within a residential area if it has at least 7,075 people living within a 3-mile radius of the plant - thus giving that surrounding 3-mile radius a population density of 250 people per square mile or higher.)
For more information on each plant (including a map of the surrounding area), click on the plant's name on the left-hand side of the table.
