Aurora straddles the Portage and Summit County line, placing it squarely in one of Ohio's highest-radon-risk regions. The wooded, rolling terrain that makes Aurora attractive to homebuyers sits on the same glacial deposits that trap and concentrate radon gas. We provide certified radon testing and mitigation for Aurora homeowners, from the established neighborhoods near Aurora Farms to the newer developments along Route 82.
Radon Risk in Aurora, OH
Aurora's geology mirrors the broader Northeast Ohio radon profile — dense glacial till over fractured shale and sandstone bedrock. Portage County is classified as EPA Zone 1, meaning predicted average indoor radon levels exceed the 4.0 pCi/L action level. Aurora's housing stock includes a mix of 1970s-80s colonials along East Garfield Road and Chillicothe Road, and newer construction in the Barrington, Geauga Lake area, and Sunny Lake developments.
The deeper basements common in Aurora's larger homes create more surface area for radon entry. Homes with walk-out basements on sloped lots are not immune — the foundation walls below grade still contact radon-producing soil.
