he Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) uses a measure called the Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) to measure air quality in a city. A PSI reading over 100 indicates a day when the air quality is considered unhealthy. The measurements represent the number of days in 1995 that the PSI was over 100 for twenty metropolitan areas in the U.S. Midwest.
0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 7, 7, 11, 14
