Richmond is one of the worst pollen cities

Yes, but: While Richmond ranks in the top five for cities with the most pollen, we come in at No. 23 when it comes to the worst places to live with allergies, per a new report from the nonprofit Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America.

• That's in part because we have more allergy doctors and a little less tree pollen than many other cities, the report found.

So it could be worse. We could be in this year's No. 1 worst allergy city: Wichita.
