Winfield, Kansas
Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
Winfield residents live near the Strother Field Industrial Park, an active Superfund site located 4.5 miles away. This area contains hazardous substances that can contaminate local water and soil. While the site is managed, high hazard scores suggest environmental risks remain. For your daily life, this means being cautious about where you play outside or grow food. Pollutants in the ground can travel through the air as dust or soak into groundwater used for drinking and irrigation.
