Radon tests reported for Rogers County, 2008 to 2017, laboratory
CDC holds 27 reported tests for Rogers County over the 2008 to 2017 laboratory totals, with a median of 0.8 pCi/L: too few to describe a county (Radon411 reads a share from 30 tests up). Rogers County beside the counties around it is how this page reads it.
What these figures count
Only 27 tests were reported to CDC for Rogers County over 2008 to 2017 (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: 2008 to 2017, laboratory. Measured data period: 2005 to 2017 (every CDC figure on file).
Rogers County, Compared
Rogers County radon figures, compared
Calculated by Radon411CDC's largest figure for Rogers County rests on 29 tests over the 2007 to 2016 laboratory totals, 3 of them at or above 4 pCi/L, so each test moves its share by 3.4 points and no rank or comparison is drawn from it. Results reached as high as 22.5 pCi/L, with a middle value of 0.8 pCi/L.
Of the counties bordering it, 2 have a figure over the 2006 to 2015 laboratory totals: Washington County reported the largest share at or above 4 pCi/L, 11.3%, and Tulsa County the smallest, 6.0%. Farther out, Delaware County (45 miles away) at 44.7%, Cherokee County (47 miles away) at 32.0% and Oklahoma County (116 miles away) at 8.9% have figures too. 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 Rogers 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.
Pooled shares: Radon411's sum of CDC's county counts for one period.
Rogers County, Geology
The ground under Rogers County
PredictedUSGS's geologic map puts all of Rogers 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% |

Rogers County, Cities and towns
Cities and towns in Rogers County
Rogers County is growing: the Census Bureau puts it at 102,197 residents on July 1, 2025, up 7.1% from 95,395 in 2020. That works out to 151 people per square mile of land. Tulsa, the largest place on its list (416,209 residents in all), extends beyond Rogers County, so no share of the total is worked out for it. CDC's 29 reported tests for 2007 to 2016 work out to 0.3 per 1,000 residents (2025 estimate), close to Oklahoma's 0.2.
From Tulsa to Valley Park, CDC publishes no figure by town: each reads Rogers County's.
