Local Environmental Conditions
In Franklin County Golf Center, hazel and willow crowd the water's edge, both classic sources of early allergenic pollen; this sits just outside the immediate area. The tree cover here leans heavily on oak and birch, both key drivers of spring pollen, in the surrounding area. Neighboring areas with similar land cover tend to show a closely matching pollen mix.
Around Franklin County Golf Center, woodland oak and birch pick up the pace next, through mid-to-late spring, peaking in the heart of spring, generally April into May. The water-adjacent hazel and willow are early risers, usually the first pollen source active, peaking sometime in February or March. Grass pollen counts rise through late spring, reaching their peak around June, handing off to ragweed, which peaks from mid-August through October.

The 0–100 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
