Providence, RI -Ranked #8 for seasonal allergies

by

 

The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America has listed Providence, RI as number 8 in a ranking of cities where people are most affected by seasonal allergies.

The annual report provides important insights into cities where people are most affected by seasonal symptoms due to environmental factors such as grass, tree and weed pollen.

Providence is listed as having an extremely high pollen count with the top allergens being juniper, maple, and birch.

Could it be because we are such a beautiful GREEN state?
