Buffalo's Allentown air quality reflects the historic Victorian arts neighbourhood, with vehicle traffic on Allen Street and the surrounding dense mixed residential and arts character contributing local sources. Lake Erie's lake winds provide background ventilation, while the neighbourhood's walkable character and the tree-lined residential streets generally maintain moderate Buffalo metropolitan readings throughout most of the year.
