About this ranking
Days with a daily Air Quality Index of 0 to 50 (good) as a percentage of the days of the year with an AQI in a US county. Calculated by Invokely from the day counts in the EPA AirData annual summaries; both counts are stored with each value.
United States counties with air quality monitors only, about 1,000 of some 3,100 in recent years; a county without monitors has no value. The number of days with an AQI differs between counties because some monitors run only in the ozone season.
Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the counties are compared on one definition. 14 counties with data in other periods have no value for 2015 and are left out rather than filled from another source. Equal values share a rank.
