Radon risk in Will County, IL

The EPA places Will County, IL in Zone 2 - a moderate-risk category, with a predicted average indoor radon level between 2 and 4 pCi/L.

Lead paint risk in Will County, IL

Census figures show 38% of homes in Will County, IL were built before 1980, and 10% before 1950.

This is a statistic about the county's housing, not a test of any particular property - if your home predates 1980, a lead swab test is the way to check.
