Muskegon's air quality benefits from Lake Michigan's powerful westerly and northerly lake winds providing consistent clean maritime ventilation along the western Michigan shoreline, making this one of the state's cleaner urban environments. Vehicle emissions from US-31 and the surrounding manufacturing and port industry contribute local sources, while summer regional ozone from industrial Great Lakes sources and the surrounding agricultural landscape are the primary warm-season concerns across this mid-sized western Michigan lake city.
