Air quality today

The air quality in Zapopan today is classified as Moderate. The primary pollutant measured is PM2.5, with a reported concentration of 18.37 µg/m³. In addition, the level of PM10 recorded is 28.91 µg/m³, based on sixteen valid observations.

Data are shown via OpenAQ and reflect the current monitoring results for the city. This page is informational; for health guidance, use official sources such as EPA AirNow or WHO.

What the data includes

Zapopan’s OpenAQ feed contains data for eight measured pollutants – carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), total nitrogen oxides (NOX), ozone (O₃), particulate matter ≤10 µm (PM10), particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). The dataset comprises 21 rows of observations drawn from three monitoring stations, so each pollutant is represented by a small number of measurement points across the city.

The most recent readings are from 2026‑02‑10 22:00 UTC for CO, NO, NOX, NO₂ and O₃, all recorded at the Atemajac station. PM10 shares that same timestamp at Atemajac, while the median PM2.5 value comes from Las Águilas on 2026‑02‑06 16:00 UTC. The only older entry is SO₂, last updated on 2021‑09‑23 19:00 UTC at Las Águilas, which means that for this pollutant the data are several years out of date compared with the others.

Across the recent pollutants the median concentrations show a modest spread: CO averages 0.53 ppm (range 0.16–0.54 ppm), NO₂ sits at 0.0044 ppm (0.0012–0.017 ppm), O₃ is 0.044 ppm (0.018–0.048 ppm) and NO is tightly clustered around 0.00165 ppm (0.00162–0.00168 ppm). Particulate matter shows a broader distribution; PM10’s median is 28.9 µg/m³ with values from 25.3 up to 62 µg/m³, while PM2.5 ranges dramatically from about 10 µg/m³ to nearly 1,000 µg/m³, the median being 18.4 µg/m³. The SO₂ reading is low at a maximum of 0.00081 ppm but its age limits current relevance.

Overall, Zapopan’s air‑quality snapshot is recent for most gases and PM10, yet it relies on only three stations and contains an outdated SO₂ record. Consequently, while the available data give a clear picture of short‑term conditions at those sites, city‑wide variations in pollutant levels may not be fully captured.
