Because air is in gas form, it is compressable. This means that due to the effect of the Earth's gravity, the air at sea level is a lot more dense, because all the air above it is being pushed down and compressing the air below it. Because the Earth's gravity is uniform, it is safe to say that the air does not get thinner at any certain altitude, instead it gradually gets less and less dense as the altitude increases.
