All of these points are easily resolved by not living in the biggest city in your country. Bangkok is the New York City of Thailand. You could have all the same delicious food, but great air, no traffic, and more if you went to say Chiang Mai

Nope. I moved from Chiang Mai. It has some of the worst air quality in the world for a quarter of the year, and almost consistently worse than in Bangkok.

That's a shame, guess I was only there during the good time

I stayed in chiang mai for a month last year. Air quality is second worst in Thailand because of crop burning.

I think Chiang Mai has issues with seasonal burning fields (same as Malaysia thanks to ID)
