Sydney's air quality exceeds national standards on relatively few days per year compared to other major cities, but the distribution is uneven. Suburbs near major motorways, industrial precincts, or airports tend to see more exceedances. If Lurnea shows elevated PM2.5 readings, check whether the monitoring station is representative of residential streets or positioned near a pollution source. EPA station placement affects the numbers.
