US Cities with the Most Cell Towers

These cities have the most cell towers mapped within their boundaries. Tower counts track city size closely, so a large count does not always mean high exposure at any one address. Compare the EMF score column, which accounts for density and distance.

Only cities with a published EMF Radar report are ranked. Scores are recalculated as new tower and power grid data arrives; read the methodology for sources and weighting.
