EPA, Air Quality Index, USA, 2006

This data set provides information about the Air Quality Index (AQI). The AQI is an index for reporting how clean or polluted the air is and the associated health risks. Data in this set are given in number of days that the AQI fell within a certain range (good - hazardous). This data also provides information on which pollutants were in the air (O3, CO, SO2, etc…). All data is given on the county level for the United States from 2001 to 2006. Data can be seen for earlier years and all of this data can be found at the EPA’s website . This dataset can be used to see which areas have the poorest or best air quality, which can be useful for a number of industries, from real estate to health care and insurance.
