Californian cities rank among the dirtiest in America, with ten cities in the Golden State tying for the worst median air quality in the U.S., according to the lawn care website known as LawnStarter.

San Bernardino was named the dirtiest city in America, with Los Angeles not far behind, according to the LawnStarter analysis. The Daily Caller has the story.

Though Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom has pushed for aggressive climate goals that have led to stringent regulations and routed billions into green energy initiatives, numerous cities in his state still rank among the most polluted in America, according to LawnStarter.

“San Bernardino, California, ranks as the dirtiest city for the 2nd year in a row,” the analysis states. “Out of the cities in our ranking, San Bernardino has the highest share of residents dissatisfied with pollution — 75% — and ties with 9 other California cities with the worst median air quality.”

Several other cities tied with Los Angeles for the dirtiest in the U.S., including Detroit, Michigan, and Reading, Pennsylvania, according to LawnStarter.

Two other Californian cities made the top ten, including Ontario and Corona, according to the analysis.
