The most severely affected group will be that of the small children. The children are more prone to the toxic chemical hazard of the neighborhood. The small children are unaware of the harmful effects of the toxins and are always inquisitive about new things. This makes them susceptible to the damage from the toxic chemicals as there are chances that they may swallow or touch these chemicals.
