Henry County is in EPA Radon Zone 2, the moderate predicted radon potential category on the EPA map. In UGA Extension data covering tests from 1990 through 2022, 229 of 1,455 tests, or 15.7%, were at or above the EPA action level of 4.0 pCi/L. UGA Extension's Henry County fact sheet reports that 15% of homes tested from 1990 through 2024 had elevated levels. Levels vary from house to house, even next door, so testing during due diligence is the only way to know a specific home's level.
