In this study, the ion index characteristics of small and medium urban land use types were investigated in the city of Chungju. The average temperature for each land use type was in the order: general commercial district ($29.59^{\circ}C$) > general residential district ($28.34^{\circ}C$) > productive green district ($28.31^{\circ}C$). The average relative humidity was in the order: productive green district (70.12%) > general residential district (69.93%) > general commercial district (66.48%). The average wind speed was in the order: productive green district (0.95 m/s) > general commercial district (0.87 m/s) > general residential district (0.54 m/s). Positive and negative ions were investigated to determine the ion index by land use type. The average amount of positive ion generated was in the order: general commercial district ($737ea/cm^3$) > general residential district ($492ea/cm^3$) > productive green district ($445ea/cm^3$). The average negative ion production decreased in the order: productive green district ($930ea/cm^3$) > general residential district ($754ea/cm^3$) > general commercial district ($744ea/cm^3$). The ion index calculated from measured data can be arranged in the order: productive green district (2.09) > general residential district (1.53) > general commercial district (1.01). These results confirm the state of positive and negative ion generation in each land use type. Further, the differences in the ion index by land use type were confirmed. However, a limitation of this study is that simple summer measurements were conducted, and seasonal characteristics were not considered. Therefore, any future investigation and research should consider seasonal variation characteristics.
