PM2.5 Air Quality Index Here provides comparisons of air quality based on factors that have been shown to increase risk from air pollution. These factors can include life stages (children and older adults), specific health conditions (heart or lung disease), and increased likelihood of exposure from being active outdoors. The Air Quality Index (AQI) is the official index for air quality across the United States. The AQI ranges from 0 to 500. The higher the AQI value, the greater the level of air pollution and the greater the health concern. When AQI values are between 101 and 150, or code orange, members of sensitive groups may experience health effects. This is because they are more likely to be affected at lower air quality levels than everyone else. For example, children and older adults, people with lung disease, and people who are active outdoors (outdoor workers) are at greater risk from exposure to ozone. Older adults and children, and people with heart or lung disease ar
