Yekaterinburg - Post Report Question and Answers
What is the air quality like at post (good/moderate/bad)? Are there seasonal air quality issues? Does the air quality have an impact on health?
Air quality is moderate. In the city center, it can be bad at times due to traffic, but I have been able to run outside with no big breathing issues. Seasonal allergies can be a problem for some. Generally, air quality does not have a negative impact on health, as far as I know. - Feb 2020
Generally, it's ok but again if you are an allergy sufferer or have issues with asthma, spring might be tough for a couple of weeks. - Aug 2018
Generally good. Traffic exhaust is becoming a problem. The fires in the countryside this summer caused several weeks of smog. - Aug 2010
