Nienburg's local air quality is shaped mainly by vehicle traffic along the regional road network and nearby farming and small-scale industry, set within the inland Lower Saxon countryside near the Harz foothills. The inland setting gives fairly even dispersal conditions overall, while regional airflow from the west and limited heavy industry keep background pollution moderate throughout the year.
