SmogRank / World / Spain / Galicia / January 2023
Most polluted cities in Galicia, Spain, January 2023
7 cities in Galicia, Spain ranked by their average PM2.5 over the 31 days. Worst: Vigo at 11.2 µg/m³, #382 of 1,225 cities in the world. Cleanest: Narón at 5.1. A city needs measurements on 70% of the days to be ranked.
OpenAQ's archive, where our readings come from, has almost none for 7 of these 31 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.
About 0 people in this city breathed unhealthy air on an average day of January 2023.
Ranked by people: each city's population times its share of unhealthy days, those with a daily mean over 35.4 µg/m³ (US AQI 101+). That is how many people living there breathed unhealthy air on an average day. Only cities measured at 2 or more places at least 3 km apart are ranked: one monitor shouldn't speak for a whole city. Population is the city itself, not its wider metro area.
