The Jacksonville metro area was ranked among the cleanest in the nation for ozone pollution, according to the American Lung Association’s 2024 “State of the Air” report, which was released Wednesday.

“In the 25 years that the American Lung Association has been doing our ‘State of the Air’ report, we have seen incredible improvement in the nation’s air quality. Unfortunately, more than 131 million people still live in places with unhealthy levels of air pollution” said Ashley Lyerly, Senior Director of Advocacy for the American Lung Association. “Climate change is making air pollution more likely to form and more difficult to clean up.
It was the third consecutive report in which the Jacksonville metro area received an “A” grade for ozone smog but it was a slightly different story when it came to particle pollution.
