Radon Risks by County
The USEPA has published county-by-county maps of radon risk assessments. The color-coded maps represent the expected radon test result if any single property within the county were tested. It is important to realize that any particular structure may test higher or lower than the expected result for the county.
- RED...........high risk.............> 4.0 pCi/L
- ORANGE...moderate risk...2.0-3.9 pCi/L
- YELLOW.........low risk.........., 2.0 pCi/L
