Air Pollution in Azusa (Los Angeles, Riverside: living in, health, places)

[coast guy]

Can anyone tell me how bad the air quality in Azusa is? Is it only once in awhile or everyday? Is it a serious health threat to those who work or spend a lot of time outside? We are living in Reno right now so we understand how inversion works but most of the time our air quality is good. We are considering a job there so any information would be appreciated. Thank you

You should look at this web site:

In general, anywhere in the Los Angeles Basin is still pretty polluted. The worst places are further inland like Riverside/San Bernardino.

Despite the pollution, the air quality has improved significantly in recent years, and that seems almost certain to continue.
