The article is devoted to the study of the possibilities of bioindication for coniferous and deciduous woody and herbaceous plants for assessing the state of atmospheric air in an urban area where there is no significant anthropogenic impact and there are no large industrial enterprises. At the same time, there has been an increase in the population, an increase in the number and the development of small businesses and organizations, an increase in units of use and, consequently, an increase of vehicle traffic in the recent years. Studies were performed on both of these departments of the plant kingdom in order to compare the results. A dynamic analysis of the results of the study with archived data was also carried out.
