Oklahoma City's Automobile Alley air quality reflects the historic car dealer and arts corridor, with vehicle traffic on Broadway Avenue and the surrounding rapidly developing mixed commercial and residential character contributing local sources. The flat Oklahoma terrain allows good dispersal, while the neighbourhood's walkable arts character and the consistent southerly Great Plains winds generally maintain moderate Oklahoma City metropolitan readings throughout most of the year.
