Air quality in Ikorodu, Lagos State, Nigeria today

Mr. Duck’s Air Quality Score

Unhealthy air today for Ikorodu, Lagos State, Nigeria

Air quality today

The air quality in Ikorodu today is classified as Unhealthy. The primary pollutant identified is PM2.5, which represents fine particulate matter. The latest reading shows a concentration of 95.08 µg/m³, calculated from eleven valid measurements collected throughout the monitoring period. No PM10 data are available for this assessment. According to the Duck score assessment, this concentration places the air quality in the Unhealthy bracket. Only PM2.5 data were reported, and the absence of PM10 prevents a comparative analysis.

All reported values are displayed through the OpenAQ platform, which aggregates measurements from participating monitoring stations. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

The Ikorodu air‑quality record pulls data from three monitoring stations that together contribute 21 rows of observations. Five pollutants are captured: fine particles (PM2.5), coarse particles (PM1), relative humidity, temperature and particle count (UM003). The most recent measurements for each pollutant were all logged on 2026‑02‑10 at 22:00 UTC, so the dataset is fresh in the sense that the latest values are less than a month old, but the overall time depth is limited to the 21 rows currently available.

Across the available rows, PM2.5 values range from about 44 µg/m³ at the low end to 98 µg/m³ at the high end, with a median of roughly 83 µg/m³, indicating a fairly wide spread. PM1 shows a lower concentration band, from roughly 29 µg/m³ up to 58 µg/m³, medianing near 43 µg/m³. Relative humidity varies between 58.6 % and 82.9 %, centering around 75.8 %, while temperature is recorded between 27.1 °C and 31.7 °C, with a median close to 27.8 °C, suggesting modest diurnal fluctuation. The particle‑count metric UM003 spans from about 2 349 particles/cm³ to 4 477 particles/cm³, with a median of 3 344 particles/cm³, reflecting a considerable range in airborne particle density.

Because all pollutants share the same most‑recent timestamp, the dataset provides a synchronized snapshot rather than a continuous time series. The modest number of rows means that day‑to‑day or hour‑to‑hour changes are not fully captured, and conditions can differ across neighborhoods and times not represented here. Users should keep in mind that while the current figures are up‑to‑date, the limited coverage may not reflect the full variability of air quality throughout Ikorodu.

Data notes

This dataset includes 11 valid measurements and is updated within 30 days. The latest update was on 2026-02-10T22:00:00+00:00. Please note that air quality can vary by location and time within the city, so the figures represent a snapshot rather than a comprehensive view of all neighborhoods.
