Industrialization and intensification of the economy, increased capacity of livestock complexes, high rates of urbanization can lead to environmental pollution, which, in turn, affects the sanitary living conditions and human health.The aim of our research was the hygienic characterization of atmospheric air pollution at different distances from livestock complexes and block outbuildings with an assessment of its impact on the health of the child population. Since the solution of environmental problems is carried out both at the stage of drawing up projects (schemes) of district planning and during the planning of rural settlements, at the first stage of the work we studied the construction projects of the settlements. We determined the pollution of atmospheric air with formaldehyde, hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. The work also used sociological methods - interview and questionnaire survey of the population.
