AirNow's data _can_ be less accurate. For example, punching in a Lamorinda ZIP code only returns results for Oakland ("Oakland reporting area"), even if the ZIP correctly shows the right locale.

PurpleAir lets me see my neighbor's air quality stats...two houses away. PurpleAir is much more relevant and accurate for me.
