It is unhealthy to live in a house, apartment, etc. that is near a busy road since this will cause vehicle emissions from the road to also seep into your home. Scientific studies have shown that pollution levels are always much higher next to busy roads. Also, "Children who live within 50 yards of a busy road are more likely to develop Asthma, eczema and hay fever, a study has shown." Dust, tire and diesel engine particles actually cause Allergies. So it's best to find a home 50 meters from a busy road. (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1026327/Children-live-near-busy-road-likely-develop-allergies-caused-car-fumes.html)

As a health guru, I would advise you to keep all your windows and doors closed to avoid the pollution, get 3 large plants for each 100 square feet of your home and use Duct Tape to seal off any possible air leaks in your windows. Use a 1-way fan such as a modern kitchen stove fan that sucks air outside rather than blowing air inside. However it is recommended to open the windows after a major rainstorm because since that temporarily cleans the air.
