Požega's air quality reflects its position in the Skrapež river valley in western Serbia's Zlatibor district, with vehicle traffic on the A5 corridor and the town's manufacturing and agricultural operations contributing local sources. Winter residential wood burning generates elevated PM2.5 under valley inversions, while the surrounding hills of the western Serbian highlands create topographic enclosure that concentrates emissions during calm winter periods.
