Measured Risk Leaders in Colorado
County rankings from actual reported radon tests
These lists rank the visible Colorado 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 evidence read
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 5 visible county measurement rows. 3 counties cross the high measured-burden band, so those pages should answer testing and 4.0+ action questions most directly.
First-click counties
Open Montrose County first when you need the strongest local answer. It is tagged Test-now from 56.4% 4.0+ - 4.6 pCi/L primary - 2,356 tests. 5 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 5 state-source 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.
Montrose County
CDPHE
56.4% 4.0+ - 4.6 pCi/L primary - 2,356 tests
Montrose County is a first-click page: 56.4% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 4.6 pCi/L primary result. Route no-reading users to a test now and 4.0+ users to quote or credit planning.
La Plata County
CDPHE
43.5% 4.0+ - 3.4 pCi/L primary - 3,158 tests
La Plata County is a first-click page: 43.5% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 3.4 pCi/L primary result. Route no-reading users to a test now and 4.0+ users to quote or credit planning.
Boulder County
CDPHE
43.8% 4.0+ - 3.3 pCi/L primary - 17,992 tests
Boulder County is a first-click page: 43.8% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 3.3 pCi/L primary result. Route no-reading users to a test now and 4.0+ users to quote or credit planning.
Rio Grande County
CDPHE
36.0% 4.0+ - 2.7 pCi/L primary - 388 tests
Rio Grande County should be opened before lower-signal counties: 36.0% of reported tests at or above 4.0 and 2.7 pCi/L primary result. It is strong enough for testing and retesting language on the hub.

Measured pattern
Among 5 visible counties with measurement tables, 3 land in the high measured-burden band and 5 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
2 elevated measured counties are not EPA Zone 1. Those are the pages where the actual test distribution matters more than a map-only answer.
Source strategy
All measured rows shown here use state-specific official sources, so this hub can make source-backed county comparisons without leaning on a national fallback.

Official State Resource
Colorado radon program and rules
Use the state program link to verify local radon guidance, disclosure language, and contractor credential expectations before you act on an estimate.
Disclosure rule tracked
Colorado requires sellers to provide the Seller's Property Disclosure form, which includes radon. Colorado has some of the highest radon levels in the nation due to its geology.
Credential note
Colorado does not require state licensing but strongly recommends using NRPP or AARST-certified professionals.
