0% (at -44 degrees F) to 4% (at 86 degrees F). It's produced from the evaporation of liquid water, and is invisible. Almost all of it is contained in the troposphere. It's the condensation of water vapor that forms clouds, rain, snow, and other precipitation.

The percentage of water vapor found in the air is actually not steady. The amount of water vapor differs depending on the temperature and density of air and the location from where it is measured. Like in the desert, it is possible to be only 0% while in a jungle it could go up to 90%.
