What is published for Lansing

Information:

Radon data is published by county, not by city

Radon data is published by county, not by city. EPA assigns radon zones to counties, and CDC publishes radon test figures by county. Neither publishes a figure for Lansing, so every radon figure on this page belongs to a county and is labelled with it. Only a test tells you about one home.

Each county has its own CDC test figures, shown below side by side. About 113,884 people live in Lansing.

Questions about radon in Lansing

What radon zone is Lansing in?

EPA's Map of Radon Zones classifies counties, not cities. Clinton County, Eaton County and Ingham County are in Zone 2 (moderate predicted potential). A zone is a prediction for a whole county and never tells you the level in one home.

How many radon tests come back high in Lansing's counties?

For 2008 to 2017, laboratory, the share of radon tests reported to CDC that were at or above 4 pCi/L was 38.5% in Clinton County (2,313 tests), 34.4% in Eaton County (3,411 tests) and 24.9% in Ingham County (2,932 tests). Each is that county's own figure, counting tests reported to CDC, not homes. Radon411 does not average or combine them into a figure for the city.

Should I test my home in Lansing?

Yes. Testing is the only way to know the radon level in a specific building. EPA recommends fixing a home when the radon level is 4 pCi/L or higher. EPA recommends considering a fix when the level is between 2 and 4 pCi/L. How to test a home.
