Easley is mostly in Pickens County, with a small piece in Anderson County. Pickens is rated Zone 2, but its average of 3.0 pCi/L is already in the 2 to 4 range where the EPA suggests homeowners consider a fix. And a 48.1 pCi/L reading is twelve times the EPA action level of 4.
The EPA recommends testing every home, whatever the zone. Radon is colorless and odorless, and the EPA estimates it is the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers.
Easley's growing housing stock
Easley sits about 12 miles west of Greenville and has grown steadily, from 22,921 residents in 2020 to an estimated 27,319 in 2025. Housing units went from 7,932 in 2000 to 10,413 in 2020, so a large share of homes here were built in the last two decades.
New homes in Pickens County aren't required to include radon-control features. That requirement applies only in Greenville County. Older Easley homes, meanwhile, often have crawl spaces, and some have basements or partial basements. We see a lot of both.
Pickens County issued 946 new-home permits in 2025, so new construction keeps coming. If you're buying a new build, a short-term test after move-in is cheap peace of mind. South Carolina also offers one free test kit per home, while supplies last, at des.sc.gov/radon.

Easley radon FAQ
What is the radon level in Easley, SC?
There's no single Easley number, but Pickens County data is a good guide. State initial tests averaged 3.0 pCi/L across 726 homes, with a high of 48.1 pCi/L. The EPA recommends fixing at 4 pCi/L or above and considering a fix from 2 to 4. Only a test tells you your home's level.
Part of Easley is in Anderson County. Does that change anything?
Both counties are EPA Zone 2, and neither requires radon-control construction in new homes. Anderson County's average is lower at 1.7 pCi/L, but it has a reading of 38.0 pCi/L. Either way, the advice is the same: test your home and act on your own result.
Should I choose a mitigation company with certification?
South Carolina has no state radon license, so it's smart to look for NRPP or AARST certification when choosing a mitigation pro. We're happy to share the credentials of the technician assigned to your job, and we always retest after install so you can see the result.
