Most polluted cities in Texas, United States, July 2023
30 cities in Texas, United States ranked by their average PM2.5 over the 31 days. Worst: Houston at 16.4 µg/m³, #101 of 1,375 cities in the world. Cleanest: Lubbock at 7.2. A city needs measurements on 70% of the days to be ranked.
OpenAQ's archive, where our readings come from, has almost none for one of these days. Cities in the United States and Europe have it 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.
Ranked by unhealthy days: the share of each city's measured days with a daily mean over 35.4 µg/m³ (US AQI 101+), Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups or worse on the US EPA's scale. Ties go to the higher average.
