Measured Risk Leaders in Kentucky
County rankings from actual reported radon tests
These lists rank the visible Kentucky 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 120 visible county measurement rows. 62 counties cross the high measured-burden band, so those pages should answer testing and 4.0+ action questions most directly.
First-click counties
Open Meade County first when you need the strongest local answer. It is tagged Test-now from 68.4% 4.0+ - 17.5 pCi/L primary - 78 tests. 81 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 120 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.

Measured pattern
Among 120 visible counties with measurement tables, 62 land in the high measured-burden band and 81 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
51 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
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.

Official State Resource
Kentucky 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
Kentucky requires sellers to complete a Seller's Disclosure of Property Condition form, covering known environmental hazards.
Credential note
Kentucky does not require state licensing for radon professionals. NRPP or AARST certification is recommended.
