Local Environmental Conditions
The water's edge is thick with hazel and willow, whose pollen spreads readily in early spring, within the neighborhood's edge. Here, nearby, a canopy of oak and birch, birch chief among them for allergenic potency here. Year-to-year swings in rainfall and wind can shift this picture somewhat either way. Comparable land cover in surrounding areas tends to produce a similar pollen mix overall.
Hazel and willow near the water open the pollen calendar early, usually the first pollen source active, peaking sometime in February or March. Once hazel fades, oak and birch in the woods carry the season forward, typically the year's sharpest tree-pollen spell, centered on April and May. Grass pollen takes over next, building to a peak around June, before ragweed's late-summer surge carries the season into October.

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. |
