I don't know how people tolerate living further N than us, 1 hr below Hua Hin.   Lived in Udon Thani for 16 years, and last 10 ish years, I noticed how really bad it was or was getting.  Had hills in the distance west of the house, 4 ridges, and on mediocre smog days, you couldn't even see them from 2nd floor veranda.   Same if on top level of Central Plaza parking garage, you couldn't see any of the distant hillside around the city.

 

I left Udon Thani ten years ago but now also Prachuap Khiri Khan and on the same road, the city has grown a lot along with the pollution, my neighbour happily burns all the plastic waste.
