SmogRank / World / Chile / April 2023
Most polluted cities in Chile, April 2023
41 cities in Chile ranked by their average PM2.5 over the 30 days. Worst: Coyhaique at 53.1 µg/m³, #11 of 1,360 cities in the world. Cleanest: Calama at 16.5. A city needs measurements on 70% of the days to be ranked.
OpenAQ's archive, where our readings come from, has almost none for 3 of these 30 days. Cities in the United States and Europe have them from the EPA's and the European Environment Agency's own records of the same monitors; elsewhere a city's average is over its other days. Why.
