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 Trenton, so every radon figure on this page belongs to a county and is labelled with it. Only a test tells you about one home.
Mercer County has an EPA zone and its own CDC test figures, shown below. About 91,506 people live in Trenton.

What it means
Trenton, Questions
Questions about radon in Trenton
What radon zone is Trenton in?
EPA's Map of Radon Zones classifies counties, not cities. Mercer County is in Zone 1 (highest 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 Trenton's counties?
For 2022, the share of radon tests reported to CDC that were at or above 4 pCi/L was 10.6% in Mercer County (6,370 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 Trenton?
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.
The answers use the published figures of Mercer County, the county Trenton lies in.
