Radon Levels in Noble County, Oklahoma

EPA Zone 3: lower predicted potential

is EPA's lowest class, and its forecast for Noble County as a whole is an average indoor of less than 2 pCi/L (less than 75 Bq/m³). A low zone clears no address in it: homes above EPA's turn up in all three zones.

Measured: tests reported to CDC

Radon tests reported for Noble County, 2007 to 2016, laboratory

CDC holds 1 reported test for Noble County over the 2007 to 2016 laboratory totals, a result of 1.1 pCi/L: too few to describe a county (Radon411 reads a share from 30 tests up). Noble County beside the counties around it is how this page reads it.

What these figures count

Only 1 test was reported to CDC for Noble County over 2007 to 2016 (laboratory totals), and tests are often run on homes being sold or already suspected of a problem: so few describe neither the county nor this house.

Measured: CDC tracking data. Figure above: 2007 to 2016, laboratory. Measured data period: 2005 to 2016 (every CDC figure on file).

Noble County, Compared

Noble County radon figures, compared

Calculated by Radon411

CDC's largest figure for Noble County rests on 1 test over the 2007 to 2016 laboratory totals, 0 of them at or above 4 pCi/L, so each test moves its share by 100.0 points and no rank or comparison is drawn from it. Results reached as high as 1.1 pCi/L, with a middle value of 1.1 pCi/L.

The nearest counties with a figure are Oklahoma County (59 miles away) at 8.9%, Tulsa County (74 miles away) at 6.0% and Washington County (77 miles away) at 11.3%. Pooled across 53 Oklahoma counties, 12.6% of reported tests reached that level; across every county in the country with a figure, 36.3%.

Statewide for the same period, Delaware County reported the highest share (44.7%) and Tulsa County the lowest (6.0%). EPA's 1993 map puts Noble County in Zone 3, its lowest label: a predicted county average under 2 pCi/L. USGS geology rates 100% of the county's land low radon potential.

Noble County, Geology

The ground under Noble County

Predicted

USGS's geologic map puts all of Noble County's mapped land in one class: low radon potential. All of it lies in the area the map calls Central Oklahoma Plains and Hills, to which USGS gives a radon index of 7, in the low band (5 to 8).

Testing a home in Noble County

No CDC figure names Noble County; the nearest county with one, Oklahoma County (59 miles away), reported 8.9% of its tests at or above 4 pCi/L over the 2006 to 2015 laboratory totals, the only reading nearby until a test of this home. Zone 3 is the lowest label, yet homes at or above 4 pCi/L occur in every zone: a short-term kit (2 to 90 days) is the quick first check in Noble County.

Cities and towns in Noble County

Noble County's population has barely moved since 2020: 10,899 residents on July 1, 2025 against 10,925 then, by the Census Bureau's estimates. That works out to 15 people per square mile of land. Its largest town, Perry, has 4,448 residents, 40.8% of the total. Together its 5 incorporated places hold 56.7% of those residents; the other 43.3% live outside any of them.

From Perry to Marland, CDC publishes no figure by town: each reads Noble County's.
