Clarendon Hills, IL Radon Facts

EPA Radon Zone Zone 2 — Moderate Risk 2–4 pCi/L (Zone 2)
County Dupage County, IL
Zip Code 60514

Located in DuPage County within Chicago's western suburbs, Clarendon Hills sits on glacial till deposits that create favorable conditions for radon accumulation in basements. Testing data for zip code 60514 is currently limited, though the area's EPA Zone 2 status and predominant full-basement construction typical of 1950s-1990s suburban development warrant homeowner attention. The region's dense clay soils over limestone bedrock can trap radon gas, making testing particularly important for residents with finished lower levels.

Should I test for radon if I'm buying a home in Clarendon Hills?
