St. Petersburg - 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?

The air quality is not the best. There are quite a few that have a constant cough and respiratory problems. I would recommend stocking up on any inhalers since they can't get through pouch. Also an air purifier is helpful. Post will supply humidifiers for the winter. - Apr 2017


It's not terrible. Traffic can be congested/as expected which contributes to some pollution. - Feb 2016


The air quality in St. Petersburg is below average, but if you don't have allergies, you don't realize it until you travel to the countryside or other small towns. - Aug 2011
