Air quality in Avan district is calculated from 12 active monitoring stations. This page shows the current AQI and PM2.5, measurement map and historical air pollution trends.
Avan lies on the elevated northeastern edge of Yerevan and is one of the capital's highest districts. Urban development transitions here into the open slopes of the Kotayk Plateau.
The district combines the historic settlement of Avan, apartment blocks and extensive private housing. The ruins of the early medieval Avan Cathedral, older residential quarters and the main roads towards Nor Nork and the northeastern suburbs are its key landmarks.
Elevated pollution in Avan is more common during the cold season from November through March, when heating and stable winter weather become more important. Because of its height and open terrain, the district often ventilates better than lower parts of Yerevan on windy days.
Avan is generally cooler than central and southern Yerevan, especially at night and in winter. It is more exposed to wind, snow can remain for longer, and summer heat is usually slightly less intense because of the elevation.
