San Jose, California lies in the heart of Silicon Valley, and many tech companies like eBay, Cisco, and Adobe call the city home. Unfortunately, the location is also home to one very negative aspect to health—air pollution. According to the American Lung Association’s 2015 State of the Air report, the city is in the top 10 most polluted areas of the nation, figuring in at number 6. The area’s air problem is compounded by the drought and heat that continues to plague the state of California. Periods of no air prevent pollution from leaving the area, and thus promote its accumulation over time. As a result of prolonged pollution levels, many people are heading to urgent care centers in San Jose to seek a solution for their breathing problems.
