EPA has a bunch of air quality stations in that area (they don't provide real time data though):

(from there, click through to the map and then turn on layers of interest)



Yeah I'm aware they do, but it's outdated, inaccessible, and lacking, which is why I guess I want to do a better job at it, and ideally host many more sensors.

Indiana is one of, if not the most toxic state https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/post-tribune/ct-ptb-e...

I live on the southern shoreline of Lake Michigan, the rest of Gary, Whiting, Hammond is directly south of the Gary Works, BP, etc. There should be way more hyper-localised air quality monitoring, 1-2 isn't enough, the air I breathe, isn't what school kids in Gary/Whiting breathe.
