São José dos Pinhais' air quality reflects its position adjacent to Curitiba in the Paraná metropolitan area, with the Afonso Pena International Airport generating aviation emissions and vehicle traffic on the BR-376 and the surrounding automotive and industrial corridor contributing elevated NOₓ and PM2.5. The elevated Paraná plateau position at 906 metres generally aids background dispersal, while the Curitiba metropolitan basin's occasional winter temperature inversions can temporarily concentrate vehicle and industrial emissions across the metropolitan area.
