Missouri City's air quality reflects its position south of Houston in Fort Bend County, with vehicle emissions from US-59 and Beltway 8 and the surrounding suburban residential and commercial corridor contributing local sources. Gulf of Mexico southerly breezes provide warm-season ventilation, while the Houston Ship Channel petrochemical complex upwind contributes industrial background emissions under northerly wind conditions and the flat coastal terrain generally allows reasonable dispersal throughout the year.
