Households making under $10,000 per year experience double the exposure to pollution compared to households making more than $150,000.

Gas-burning ranges, a significant contributor to indoor pollution, can produce and spread particularly high levels of some pollutants in smaller spaces.

Health officials say breathing air with high levels of nitrogen dioxide can cause respiratory problems, including asthma.
