This, plus:

- Which way does the prevailing wind blow? (Toward your prospective house, or away?)

- If the airport had leaky underground storage tanks, in which directions might the gas (& lead) seep?

Also, a quick way to estimate local prevailing winds near an airport is to look at the runway direction. Planes like to land into head winds so if there's only a single runway, those winds are mostly in one direction down the runway.
