I think places with clean air have commanded a premium over equivalent homes in areas with bad air for decades. Here in the US I had neighbors who moved from Pittsburgh because of the air. They said that in the early '60s or late '50s they couldn't hang washing outside to dry because it would get dirty from the soot and crap in the air.
