That could be a factor, but I meant more in that dust settles easily in basements because they are physically lower. We live on the first floor of a 30 story building, and even here we end up getting tons of dust. But air quality is also a big issue here in general. may not be so serious in other places.
Depends on where you live and how the basement is built. “Sweating” concrete in winter can be a huge problem, and air quality is worse in basements.
Is air quality worse in basements due to them having more floods? Like if a house was just built, would all the floors have the same air quality?
