[Fez Hammersticks]

California makes up most of the list:

That reminds me of Houston, when I lived there the sky was brown every day. I am so glad I don't live there anymore.

I was shocked at how many cities were in California. I wonder if it had more to do with the criteria than actual pollution?

Seems suspect to me. I wouldn't call Sacramento "dirty". I've seen some brilliant blue skies there. What was that measurement for that list? Have they ever been to Detroit? There is brown snow there at times, and I mean as it is falling.

Yeah, I expected more Rust Belt cities.

Sacramento has a lot of loose dirt flying around in the air. Dusty and landlocked. Probably immigrants and their careless farming practices.

I like Miami but the Air Quality can get a little dirty sometimes in the morning, or during rush hour. All over the city really.

Otherwise yeah, great city.

The title isn't very clear. The ratings are for air pollution. Like BGF, I couldn't believe that Detroit wasn't on the list. That place should make the list for any kind of shithole.

Go Blazers

Without rain to cleanse the air, California is at a disadvantage.
