American Lung Association Smog Report
How surprising...
not! The Atlanta metro air quality is nearly as bad as Los Angeles.
Of course all the cities got bad marks, but Fulton County appears to have outrun some classic pollution centers like New York City and Boston. Hard to tell if the climate was a contributing factor. Birmingham, with a similar climate, did not have as high a score--but their traffic load is much less than Atlanta's.
