Around this lab: Franklin County, OH

• Private wells: about 7,000 people, 1% of Franklin County’s 1,251,722 residents (USGS, 2015); rank 70 of 88 counties in Ohio by people on wells.

• EPA radon zone (indoor air): Zone 1: highest potential (average indoor radon may be greater than 4 pCi/L). EPA says the zone map should not decide whether one home needs testing.
• Arsenic above 10 µg/L (USGS model): about 478 private-well users (95% range 279 to 769; 2010 base), rank 51 of 88 in the state. A screening estimate, not a measurement of any well.
• Older homes (Census ACS 2020–2024): 51% of 595,469 housing units were built before 1980, below the state share of 63%. Homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead solder or fittings, so test tap water for lead there.
• PFAS in public water nearby (public supply, not your well): 15 public systems serving this county reported EPA UCMR 5 results; 4 had a PFOA or PFOS sample at or above 4.0 ng/L.
