A $200 air purifier can make a world of difference: https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-air-purifier... (I own a Coway Airmega 200M.)
I bought a Temtop monitor to verify if the "smart mode" (where it only runs if the air quality is low): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DHXQXGK/
I live in Los Angeles where the air quality isn't that great and in a rented apartment where I have limited choices. The air purifier made a dramatic difference in the first hour I had it and now it keeps the PM2.5 reading down to around 2-4 with minimal cycling.
Not the OP, but I tried a bunch of these and wrote up details here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AirQuality/comments/ikf1ed/are_ther...
Most of them (including the awair) are complete crap.
I found one that seems okay and is also one of the cheaper ones.
I use and like this one best: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DHXQXGK/
Simple screen with relevant details, no crappy 2.4ghz wifi, no crappy app, etc. it just works.
