Okfuskee County, Compared
CDC's county radon counts over the 2006 to 2015 laboratory totals cover 53 Oklahoma counties, and Okfuskee County is not among them: no year's figure and no ten-year laboratory total names it. Pooled across 53 Oklahoma counties, 12.6% of reported tests reached that level; across every county in the country with a figure, 36.3%.
The nearest counties with a figure are Tulsa County (50 miles away) at 6.0%, Oklahoma County (61 miles away) at 8.9% and Cherokee County (80 miles away) at 32.0%. 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 Okfuskee 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.

Okfuskee County, Geology
USGS's geologic map puts all of Okfuskee 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).
| Area | The rock, in USGS's words | Potential | Radon index | Share of land |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Central Oklahoma Plains and Hills | Nonmarine Permian and Tertiary rocks, including shale, sandstone, and conglomerate in the western part, and Mississippian and Pennsylvanian rocks in the eastern part. | Low | 7 | 100% |

Across Oklahoma 0.6% of the land is rated high; none of Okfuskee County's is. None of the 7 counties that border it has any moderate-potential ground either.
