Illinois' radon program is run by the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA), which publishes results reported by licensed radon measurement professionals on a public dashboard. We pulled those results in October 2026 for 26 cities in and around DuPage County and counted valid tests on homes without a mitigation system.
The EPA numbers that matter
- 4.0 pCi/L is EPA's action level: fix the home at or above it.
- EPA suggests considering a fix between 2 and 4 pCi/L, since there is no known safe level.
- EPA calls radon the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers.

How to read these numbers
These are not a random survey. Most tests are ordered for home sales or by worried homeowners, and a city name on a test address doesn't always match municipal limits. Use them to see that elevated radon is common here, not to predict your house. Neighbors on the same street can test very differently. Test your own home.
