Quick answer

What does German cities with the lowest annual NO2 show?

Einbeck, Germany has the lowest no₂ — annual mean of the 30 cities compared: 5 µg/m³ (EEA air quality statistics — DE NO2 annual mean 2024 (station Solling-Süd), 2024-12-31).

How this list is built

Every row is a published no₂ — annual mean observation, ranked lowest first. The values were observed in 2024. 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.

  • Compare the displayed value, unit, source date and geographic grain together.
  • A city label does not change a regional observation into a city measurement.
