Radon Risk in Buffalo & Wright County
Minnesota consistently ranks among the highest-radon states in the country. The Minnesota Department of Health estimates that approximately 2 in 5 Minnesota homes have radon levels above the EPA action level of 4 pCi/L — and Wright County is no exception.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that seeps into homes from the soil and bedrock beneath your foundation. It's colorless, odorless, and tasteless — impossible to detect without testing. Long-term exposure is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, responsible for about 21,000 deaths per year.
If you haven't tested your Buffalo home, or if results came back above 4 pCi/L, the EPA recommends mitigation. Radon Stoppers can typically reduce levels below 2 pCi/L — often down to 1 pCi/L or less.

Buffalo, MN: County Seat, High Radon County -- Know What's in Your Home
Buffalo is the county seat of Wright County, and like much of central Minnesota, it sits on glacial geology that creates conditions favorable for radon accumulation. The soils here -- predominantly glacial till with scattered sandy outwash -- allow radon to travel upward through the ground and into home foundations at a steady rate. Older neighborhoods near downtown Buffalo and Lake Pulaski often have aging basement construction that provides fewer barriers to radon entry.
Many Buffalo homeowners don't realize that radon risk isn't tied to how clean or new a home is. A well-maintained home with a finished basement can have just as much radon infiltration as an older property, depending on soil type, foundation cracks, and ventilation. The Minnesota Department of Health reports that approximately 2 in 5 Minnesota homes test above the EPA action level of 4 pCi/L -- Wright County is not an exception.
