Best areas to live in Moradabad

Air, heat, flood and greenery compared across 5 areas · free public data

Air is the main story: a typical Moradabad area averages 69 µg/m³ of PM2.5 a year, and Nov–Jan pushes that to 114 µg/m³ — above India's daily limit of 60. Air varies little between areas — under 5 µg/m³ separates the cleanest from the most polluted.

Heat is a real factor, with around 127 hot or muggy days a year in a typical area and a hottest typical day near 45°C. The monsoon brings about 832 mm of rain. None of the 5 areas we compared sit inside the modelled river/coastal flood zone. Green cover within a short walk is about a tenth of the land in a typical area (16%).
