Is ozone only found in the troposphere?

No, ozone is found in all layers of the atmosphere. In the troposphere, ozone is considered a pollutant, because it contributes to smog and gives a bitter taste to the air, but in the stratosphere and ionosphere, ozone absorbs ultraviolet radiation and reduces our risk of sunburn and skin cancer. Ozone is naturally produced when radiation strikes oxygen and ionizes it, and the oxygen ions recombine into ozone.

Ozone is dangerous in which layer of atmosphere?

Ozone is found in all layers of the atmosphere. It is a minimum value at the extremes of the exosphere, and the bottom of the troposphere (where it is called a pollutant), with a peak value in the lower stratosphere. Ozone concentrations in excess of 0.05ppm in the lower troposphere is dangerous to people with asthma, and much above this, damages plants as well.
