Measured Risk Leaders in Alabama
County rankings from actual reported radon tests
These lists rank the visible Alabama county pages by measured radon signals, not by the EPA zone label alone. Use them to spot where the state hub has a real data story before opening individual county pages.

measured counties
State-level verdict
This hub has measured high-burden counties, so the first click should be evidence-led.
The state hub is now doing a decision job: it separates first-click counties, retest counties, and lower-signal counties from 15 visible county measurement rows. 2 counties cross the high measured-burden band, so those pages should answer testing and 4.0+ action questions most directly.
First-click counties
Open Colbert County first when you need the strongest local answer. It is tagged Test-now from 36.2% 4.0+ - 5.3 pCi/L primary - 578 tests. 4 visible measured counties are elevated or high enough to review before lower-signal counties.
Buyer/seller lane
Buyer/seller lane: start with the elevated or high counties, require a fresh lowest-level test, and turn any 4.0+ property result into quote or credit math. The hub has 15 CDC-backed county rows to support that routing.
Retest lane
Retest lane: 2.0-3.9 pCi/L deserves more caution in the elevated/high county set than in lower-signal counties. The hub should send those users to county pages before product or cost paths.

Ranked by measured burden, 4.0+ share, test volume, and whether the EPA zone understates the measurement signal.
Colbert County
CDC Tracking
36.2% 4.0+ - 5.3 pCi/L primary - 578 tests
Colbert County is a first-click page: 36.2% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 5.3 pCi/L primary result. Route no-reading users to a test now and 4.0+ users to quote or credit planning.
Madison County
CDC Tracking
25.2% 4.0+ - 4.0 pCi/L primary - 2,959 tests
Madison County is a first-click page: 25.2% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 4.0 pCi/L primary result. Route no-reading users to a test now and 4.0+ users to quote or credit planning.
Lauderdale County
CDC Tracking
27.2% 4.0+ - 3.5 pCi/L primary - 1,151 tests
Lauderdale County should be opened before lower-signal counties: 27.2% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 3.5 pCi/L primary result. It is strong enough for testing and retesting language on the hub.
Lawrence County
CDC Tracking
16.2% 4.0+ - 3.7 pCi/L primary - 124 tests
Lawrence County should be opened before lower-signal counties: 16.2% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 3.7 pCi/L primary result. It is strong enough for testing and retesting language on the hub.

Measured pattern
Among 15 visible counties with measurement tables, 2 land in the high measured-burden band and 4 land in high or elevated measured-burden bands. That lets this hub rank counties by observed test distribution instead of repeating the EPA map.
Map vs measurements
The strongest measured signals mostly align with the EPA zone structure, so the county pages can use the map as support while still leading with test data.
Source confidence
The measured rows shown here use CDC Tracking. This is still official evidence, but the hub should keep source caveats visible until a stable state table is available.
