Heroica Caborca's air quality reflects the flat Sonoran Desert agricultural plain at 294 metres adjacent to the US border corridor, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and the asparagus, grape, and agricultural corridor contributing local sources. Windblown Sonoran Desert dust contributes elevated PM10, while the flat desert terrain allows reasonable dispersal and Caborca generally maintains moderate to good northwestern Mexican Sonoran Desert agricultural plain readings throughout most of the year.
