Minneapolis' Longfellow air quality reflects the historic South Minneapolis residential neighbourhood, with vehicle traffic on East Lake Street and the surrounding tree-lined residential character contributing local sources. The neighbourhood's mature tree canopy provides natural filtration, while the flat terrain allows reasonable dispersal and Longfellow generally maintains among Minneapolis' more pleasant inner South Side residential environments throughout most of the year.
