The LA Times just posted a nice expose on air pollution and living near freeways. The evidence is compelling. Don't risk your kids future for convenience to the freeway.

I posted about this issue back in 2014 regarding the danger of living close to freeways:

So I glean two things from test's "not-an-answer":

1. She doesn't live in Newport like she claimed.
2. She is deaf.

What I glean from this is that Test doesn't give a shit about you or your child's health. All she wants to do is make a buck for her company in CV.

The evidence is compelling. If you live within close proximity to a busy roadway like the I5 it is bad for your health.

why did you guys repeatedly use photos of Asian children? Are you guys insinuating what I think it is you're insinuating?

I think thin masks are not that effective. I think a person would need a mask with filtration.

YF ! (Another direction towards Hazards)


You know the part that amazes me the most is that people will buy at CVE (trellis court/lantana) backing the 133 or buy at CV (Acacia/Caserta) backing the 5fwy, and they seem to turn a blind eye to the freeway and justify it as a non-issue, which is totally fine. Nothing wrong with that. Freeway homes do keep prices low and more competitive.

But then the folks who want to buy in OH and recently went to Padova were all immediately turned off by the fact that it was backing the 261.

As eyephone would put it, "sounds like a double standard to me".


Lastly, I have 4 of these in my house. Works beautifully. I think folks need not worry. Just buy 10 of these and put them in every room. [Dyson HEPA air measurer/purifier). It actually monitors the air quality in your house and turns on automatically (even when you're cooking greasy hainan chicken).

Funny how Cypress Village is affected by the freeway but other communities like Laguna Altura are magically immune.

That gate also keeps the pollution away.

I guess that was an oversight.
The environmental chart should change. (YF?)
