Clovis Nationally

Clovis's RF score of 24 places it in the top 10% nationally for cell tower exposure. For a city of 127,993 residents, this suggests an unusually dense wireless footprint.

5G in Clovis

Clovis is one of the more 5G-saturated areas we track, with 26 active 5G towers making up 48.1% of its wireless infrastructure — predominantly operated by T-Mobile. With this many high-frequency antennas placed close together, RF exposure can vary significantly from block to block.

What Clovis's Tower Density Means for Residents

With 2.1/mi², Clovis has sparse tower coverage. Though towers are spread out, EMF scores in Clovis range from 2 to 100 — some pockets sit much closer to infrastructure than others. If you're in one of those pockets, your exposure could be well above the city average.

24

Clovis's RF exposure is rated Low

Most residents experience relatively low RF from cell towers. This is a good baseline, though individual homes near tower clusters may still score higher.

What This Means for You

With only 4.2 towers per 10,000 residents, Clovis has relatively thin wireless infrastructure. Most homes won't have towers immediately nearby — but those that do can see a real impact. Searching your address shows the full picture.

Power Lines & ELF Exposure in Clovis, CA

9
100–229 kV
2
Under 100 kV

How Power Lines Affect Clovis Residents

Clovis has 11 transmission lines and 6 substations within 5 miles of the city center. ELF exposure drops off sharply with distance. Homes more than 500 meters from a transmission line or substation typically have very low ELF levels, while homes within a few hundred feet may experience noticeably higher exposure.

Substations Near Clovis

There are 6 substations in the area, where high-voltage power is stepped down for local distribution. Like transmission lines, their ELF fields drop off quickly with distance. If you can see a substation from your home, it's worth checking your address to see how it affects your score.

20

Clovis's ELF exposure is rated Low

Most residents are far enough from high-voltage infrastructure that ELF isn't a major concern. Homes directly adjacent to power lines may still want to check their specific score.

RF vs ELF in Clovis: Cell towers and power lines contribute roughly equally to Clovis's EMF picture (RF: 24, ELF: 20). Both factors matter when choosing a location — check your address to see which sources are closest to your specific home.

What This Means for You

Unlike cell tower RF, which is spread across many towers, ELF exposure is very location-specific. You could live a few blocks from a power line and barely notice it in your score, or live right next to one and see a significant impact. Check your address to see if any are close enough to affect your home.

How Clovis Compares: Cell Towers & EMF Scores

EMF Exposure & Health

What research says about EMF exposure at levels found in Clovis

Sleep Quality

Studies have found measurable effects on sleep quality from RF-EMF exposure, though effect sizes vary.

Children

Some researchers recommend lower limits for children, citing developing nervous systems and longer lifetime exposure.

Precautionary Principle

Many choose to minimize exposure based on the precautionary principle: when science is uncertain but consequences may be significant, reducing exposure is reasonable.

Cell Tower & EMF FAQ for Clovis

How many cell towers are in Clovis?
Clovis has 54 registered cell towers, of which 26 are 5G. That's a density of 2.1/mi² across the city's 25.9 square miles.
Is 5G available in Clovis?
Yes, Clovis has 26 active 5G towers. 5G uses higher-frequency RF signals and typically requires more antennas placed closer together, which can increase localized RF exposure.
What is the average EMF score in Clovis?
Clovis's overall EMF score is 36 out of 100 (Moderate). This breaks down into an RF score of 24 (cell towers & wireless) and an ELF score of 20 (power grid). Scores range from 2 to 100 across the city, so your specific location matters.
How does Clovis compare to other cities in California?
Clovis ranks #6 out of 152 cities in California for EMF exposure (lower rank = less exposure). Some of the lowest-exposure cities in the state include Temecula (24), Santa Maria (27), Santa Cruz (28), Murrieta (28), Santa Barbara (29).
Are there power lines and substations near Clovis?
Clovis has 11 high-voltage transmission lines and 6 substations within the city area. These contribute to ELF (extremely low frequency) exposure, which is measured separately from RF (cell tower) exposure. The ELF score for Clovis is 20 out of 100. Use the map above to see exactly where power grid infrastructure is located.
Which parts of Clovis have the lowest EMF?
EMF scores across Clovis range from 2 to 100, which means location within the city makes a real difference. Areas farther from cell tower clusters and major power line corridors typically score lower. Use the address search above to check specific streets and neighborhoods you're interested in.
