Anthropogenic habitat modification is a leading contributor to biodiversity change, but it unclear what factors, including scale, influence the magnitude of change. Changes in species richness and its scaling relationship across an anthropogenic gradient can be influenced by changes total number individuals each sample, abundance distribution, and/or spatial arrangement conspecific individuals. Here, we integrated continental‐scale citizen science data on bird occurrences contiguous United States – from eBird with analytical framework capable dissecting aforementioned components quantify diversity along landscape gradient. We found overall decline gradient, peak levels at low moderate modification. The change was greater gamma than alpha scales most strongly associated declining Spatial turnover lower higher impacted sites, this also due sampling fewer rather patchiness. Our results suggest that local‐scale management promote diversity, especially natural–rural–suburban interface. Management efforts (e.g. managing natural or preserving urban greenspaces against development) should focused creating, restoring, resources nesting habitat, foraging resources) necessary for large individuals, as primary
