Assen's air quality is generally good, benefiting from the flat Drenthe peat landscape providing reasonable dispersal and consistent North Sea westerlies from the Dutch coast. Vehicle traffic on the A28 motorway and surrounding agricultural and light manufacturing industry contribute local sources, while the flat Dutch terrain allows reasonable dispersal on most days and Assen generally maintains moderate Dutch urban air quality levels with the surrounding Drenthe countryside providing a relatively clean background.
