Most polluted cities in Punjab, Pakistan, November 2023

1 city in Punjab, Pakistan ranked by their average PM2.5 over the 30 days. The only one: Lahore at 251.1 µg/m³, #1 of 2,194 cities in the world. A city needs measurements on 70% of the days to be ranked.

Punjab has 9 cities ranked over the last 30 days, but only 1 here: most of its monitors have no readings for November 2023 in OpenAQ's archive, where ours come from, or too few to rank. Cities missing from this board weren't clean, just not measured.
