Annoyance caused by air pollution is a public health problem because it can be an ambient stressor causing stress and disease and can affect quality of life.

The populations of these cities often report feeling annoyed by dust. Surveys were conducted, and the collected data were analyzed using statistical analyses. The results show that sociodemographic variables, importance of air quality, perceived industrial risk, perceived air pollution and occurrence of health problems play important roles in the perceived annoyance. These results show the existence of a common problem in geographically distant areas and allow stakeholders to develop prevention strategies. Keywords—Air pollution, annoyance, industrial risks, perception of pollution, public health, settled dust.
