Iowa HHS Radon Dashboard County Metrics: 99

Measured Risk Leaders in Iowa

County rankings from actual reported radon tests

These lists rank the visible Iowa 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 99 visible county measurement rows. 48 counties cross the high measured-burden band, so those pages should answer testing and 4.0+ action questions most directly.

First-click counties

Open Osceola County first when you need the strongest local answer. It is tagged Test-now from n/a 4.0+ - 11.4 pCi/L primary - n/a tests. 71 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 99 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.

Measured pattern

Among 99 visible counties with measurement tables, 48 land in the high measured-burden band and 71 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 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.
