Oklahoma City's Wheeler District air quality benefits from its South Oklahoma City Oklahoma River waterfront position, with vehicle traffic on SW 4th Street and the surrounding rapidly developing mixed residential and commercial character contributing local sources. The Oklahoma River provides limited ventilation, while the flat terrain allows reasonable dispersal and the Wheeler District's new development character generally maintains moderate Oklahoma City metropolitan readings throughout most of the year.
