Jewish Autonomous Republic is a region of the Russian Federation associated with the high radon risk. The highest levels of radon concentration, more than 200 Bq/m3 (MPC 100 Bq/m3) were registered in the Obluchensky district and in the capital of autonomy - city of Birobidzhan. One-floor stone houses have the biggest content of radon (in units EEVA radon) in the air.
