Rio Bonito's air quality reflects the Rio de Janeiro state Serrana interior at 64 metres, with vehicle emissions from the RJ-114 and surrounding agricultural and light manufacturing contributing local sources. The surrounding Serrana highlands and the Rio Bonito plateau create topographic variation, while Atlantic sea breezes from the Niterói coast provide periodic ventilation relief and the relatively rural character and distance from Rio de Janeiro's industrial core generally maintains moderate conditions throughout the year.
