Suzhou - Post Report Question and Answers
What is the air quality like at post (good/moderate/bad)? Are there seasonal air quality issues? Does the air quality have an impact on health?
Air pollution is worse in the winter than in other seasons, but bad days can occur all year. As I mentioned above, there are worse cities in China for pollution, but the air quality in Suzhou is still worse than in any developed country. We run air purifiers in our home and offices to bring the AQI down to safe levels on bad days. I felt like I needed to wear a mask outside perhaps 15 days over the past year. - Jun 2019
