The values were observed between 2024 and 2025. A place appears only when it publishes this exact metric, so an absent place means missing data rather than a low value. Only published cities with at least 20,000 residents and city-level observations qualify. ## Sources EEA air quality statistics — NO PM2.5 annual mean 2024 (station Olav V gate) — https://air.discomap.eea.europa.eu/arcgis/rest/services/AirQuality/AQ_Statistics_WM/MapServer/0/query?where=Country_ISO%3D%27NO%27%20AND%20AirPollutant%3D%27PM2.5%27%20AND%20YearOfStatistics%3D2024&outFields=AirPollutant,AirPollutionLevel,Country_ISO,StationName,YearOfStatistics,UnitOfAirpollutionLevel,ReportingMetric,LatitudeOfMeasurementStation,LongitudeOfMeasurementStation,DataCoverage,Preliminary&returnGeometry=false&f=json Official PM2.5 2025 calendar-year station aggregate for exact in-kommune background station input(s). — https://api-luftmalinger.miljodirektoratet.no/public/agg/4/2025-01-01/2025-12-31/Fylkets%20hus?components=NO2%3BPM10%3BPM2.5 EEA Air Quality Annual Statistics — validated PM2.5 station data — https://air.discomap.eea.europa.eu/arcgis/rest/services/AirQuality/AQ_Statistics_WM/MapServer/0/query?where=AirPollutant%3D%27PM2.5%27+AND+YearOfStatistics%3D2024&outFields=AirPollutant%2CAirPollutionLevel%2CCountry_ISO%2CStationName%2CAreaOfMeasurementStation%2CYearOfStatistics%2CUnitOfAirpollutionLevel%2CTypeOfMeasurementStation%2CDataCoverage%2CReportingMetric%2CLatitudeOfMeasurementStation%2CLongitudeOfMeasurementStation&returnGeometry=false&resultRecordCount=1000&resultOffset=0&f=json EEA Air Quality Statistics — PM2.5 annual mean — https://discodata.eea.europa.eu/sql?query=select+%2A+from+%5BAirQualityDataFlows%5D.%5Blatest%5D.%5BAirQualityStatistics%5D+where+component_code+%3D+6001+and+CountryCode+%3D+%27NO%27+and+DataAggregationProcessId+%3D+%27P1Y%27+and+YearOfStatistics+in+%282022%2C+2023%2C+2024%29&p=1&nrOfHits=20000&result=json EEA City Trend — annual PM2.5 mean within city administrative boundaries — https://www.eea.europa.eu/en/topics/in-depth/air-pollution/european-city-air-quality-viewer/city-trend-viewer Official PM2.5 2025 calendar-year station aggregate for exact in-kommune background station input(s). — https://api-luftmalinger.miljodirektoratet.no/public/agg/4/2025-01-01/2025-12-31/Nygaardsgata?components=NO2%3BPM10%3BPM2.5 Official PM2.5 2025 calendar-year station aggregate for exact in-kommune background station input(s). — https://api-luftmalinger.miljodirektoratet.no/public/agg/4/2025-01-01/2025-12-31/Brynbanen?components=NO2%3BPM10%3BPM2.5 Official PM2.5 2025 calendar-year station aggregate for exact in-kommune background station input(s). — https://api-luftmalinger.miljodirektoratet.no/public/agg/4/2025-01-01/2025-12-31/V%C3%A5land?components=NO2%3BPM10%3BPM2.5 Official PM2.5 2025 calendar-year station aggregate for exact in-kommune background station input(s). — https://api-luftmalinger.miljodirektoratet.no/public/agg/4/2025-01-01/2025-12-31/Lillehammer%20barnehage?components=NO2%3BPM10%3BPM2.5 Official PM2.5 2025 calendar-year station aggregate for exact in-kommune background station input(s). — https://api-luftmalinger.miljodirektoratet.no/public/agg/4/2025-01-01/2025-12-31/Stener%20Heyerdahl?components=NO2%3BPM10%3BPM2.5 ## Cite This citation identifies the ImmigrationDB compilation/page.
