I am based in Hong Kong and Guangzhou where the air pollution is bad.

Many older rural areas have been forced to community water systems since they have literally polluted their own drinking water.

Some pollutants in water are the result of a combination of stagnant water as well as runoff from the surrounding area.  

Once you purchase the property you own the pollution as well. 

Things like negative income taxes, pollution credits, re-directing welfare programs, taxes on the very most top income earners, VAT on financial transactions, etc.

Prepare for a highly opinionated rant.First, Account Closed, stop polluting your brain with Kyosaki, Grant Cardone etc.

Please stop polluting this forum with all this junk

Also renters are more tolerant of the noise and pollution because they're not making a huge long term commitment in renting the place.

Can you afford to sue and fight the unconstutionality of this town bully when if your jealous nosey socialistic neighbors complain to him, town and police state on you, for working hours in town, other made up codes like noise pollution or too much activity, too bright lights  too tall ladder etcAre you going to continue to keep ball and chain around your neck for fear of master slave owner aka unvoted unapproved town position of person enforcing codes not laws ?

Some states, air pollution control districts, counties, and even a few cities also have their regulations.
