Why are observatories built as far away from major cities as possible?
Observatories need to be in very dark areas so they get the best unhindered view of the night sky. If you go out and look at the sky when you are in the city, the bright lights will hinder your ability to see the stars. If you go out into the country where there are relatively few lights (and fewer smog emissions) you can see the stars much better depending on the weather. Cold weather, more stars. Warm weather, fewer stars.
Why might stars of one color be much more abundant than stars of another color?

In contrast, cities have more light pollution from various sources, which can make it difficult to see stars clearly.
