Radon levels in Oklahoma: Low
The model predicts a population-weighted basement average of 1.8 pCi/L across Oklahoma's 77 counties - close to the US average of 1.8 pCi/L. Above-ground floors average 0.9 pCi/L.
Predicted (model estimate). The pCi/L figures on this page are long-term area averages from a peer-reviewed national model built on millions of real radon tests (2001-2021). They describe the typical home in this area - not your home, which can be several times higher or lower. The EPA radon zone is a separate, 1993 county-level classification. How the numbers work.

Oklahoma radon questions
- Is radon high in Oklahoma?
- Oklahoma's population-weighted predicted basement average is 1.8 pCi/L, close to the US average of 1.8. 0 of its 77 modeled counties are predicted at or above the EPA action level of 4 pCi/L, 18 are in the 2-4 "consider fixing" range and 59 are below 2. 0% of Oklahoma ZIP codes are predicted at 4 or higher.
- Which Oklahoma county has the highest radon?
- Cimarron County has the highest predicted basement average in Oklahoma at 2.5 pCi/L (EPA Zone 2). The lowest is Comanche County at 1.6 pCi/L. These are modeled area averages; individual homes in any county can test far higher.
- How many EPA Zone 1 counties are in Oklahoma?
- 0 of Oklahoma's 77 counties (0%) are EPA Zone 1 (highest potential), 9 are Zone 2 and 68 are Zone 3. The EPA zone map dates from 1993; the predicted values on this page come from a 2001-2021 model built on millions of actual tests, so the two can disagree for a given county.
- Should I test for radon in Oklahoma?
- Yes. Even though Oklahoma's predicted average is below 2 pCi/L, the EPA recommends every home be tested - radon varies house to house, and 20.5% of Oklahoma ZIP codes are still predicted at 2 pCi/L or higher.
