- About 84.1% of the whole sky rises above the horizon at some point in the year from this latitude.
- The Milky Way's core in Sagittarius culminates about 18° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.

Leskovac is a town-scale settlement, so the edge of the built-up area is often dark enough for the Milky Way on moonless nights.
