Singapore, month by month

Singapore has a measured daily mean on 1,339 days since 11 January 2023. Its worst month was September 2026, at 111 US AQI (39.4 µg/m³), 59th of 2,997 cities on that month's world ranking. Its cleanest was February 2023, at 39 US AQI (7.1 µg/m³). 2025 averaged 57 US AQI (12.4 µg/m³), against 56 US AQI (12.0 µg/m³) in 2024.

Every month since 2023

Each square is a month's mean PM2.5 in US AQI from Singapore's measured days, with its place on that month's world ranking under it. A month has a mean once 70% of its days are measured, the rule the monthly rankings use; under that, the square gives the days measured. Each square opens that month's ranking with Singapore marked; each year, the year's. A dashed square is the running month, so far.
