But industries and increased usage of vehicles will soon increase the pollution of Mangalore..
#Gautham on Mar 19, 2017 :
@Max: Let me answer your question:

The answer is only regarding Pollution and cleanliness. I have no idea about other factors regarding Mangalore.

The reason behind the pollution and cleanliness stats for Mangalore are as follows:
1. Mangalore is a very small city in terms of both area (135 sq. km) and population (600,000)
2. It is Coastal city surrounded by forests and rivers.
3. Mangalore receives extremely heavy rainfall during the 4 months of monsoon.
4. Cleanliness drives are active throughout the city. It is a very small city, and hence it is easy maintain cleanliness.

But during the last 2-3 years, vehicles have increased considerably in Mangalore. Traffic is also increasing at a moderate rate. Further urbanization will certainly lead to Mangalore featuring in the polluted cities of India.

How come that Mangalore is so clean, almost unpolluted and safe in comparison not only to India cities, but also to European and American ones? Can anyone explain that?
#Sameer on Jun 27, 2016 :
What are the PM10 and PM2.5 levels in Mangalore ? Why isn't WHO measuring the air quality in Mangalore ?
#Percy on Apr 15, 2016 :
The air quality of Mangalore is very good. Also, plastics are banned in the city.
#Vanitha on Apr 13, 2016 :
Mangalore is a clean city, but it can improve on a few parameters:
1. Sanitation can be improved at a few places.
2. Recycling of waste materials.
3. Prevent burning of waste items.
4. Emission tests on all the vehicles in the city.

I request Numbeo to include this data.

Which locations in Mangalore have cleaner air and water and better for living ?
#Naveen on Feb 03, 2016 :
Mangalore of Karnataka is a very good city to live. The pollution in Mangalore is very less, compared to other cities of India. I hope in the future, industries don't come to the Mangalore region.
#Mithun on Jan 30, 2016 :
