Cell Tower Map & RF Exposure in Hurst, TX
Carriers Operating in Hurst
5G in Hurst
Hurst has 48 active 5G towers, accounting for 24.2% of the local network. T-Mobile leads 5G deployment in the area. The network is still primarily 4G LTE, but as 5G expands, more neighborhoods will have higher-frequency antennas nearby. Searching your address shows which towers — including 5G — are closest to your home.
What Hurst's Tower Density Means for Residents
With 9.8/mi², Hurst has moderate tower coverage. Some neighborhoods have multiple towers nearby while others have very few — and it shows in the data. Scores in Hurst range from 10 to 100, so your specific address matters a lot.
Hurst's RF exposure is rated Elevated
Many residents have elevated RF exposure from nearby towers. If you're concerned, search your address to see how your specific location compares and which towers are closest.
What This Means for You
RF exposure from cell towers drops sharply with distance. In Hurst, scores range from 10 to 100, which means your specific location matters more than the city average. Search your address to see what's nearby — especially which direction towers are from your bedrooms.
Power Lines & ELF Exposure in Hurst, TX
How Power Lines Affect Hurst Residents
Hurst has 50 transmission lines and 28 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 Hurst
With 28 substations in the area, Hurst has significant power distribution infrastructure. These are the points where high-voltage power is stepped down for local use. Each one creates a localized ELF field — if you live within a few hundred meters of one, it likely contributes to your score. The map shows exactly where they are.
Hurst'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 Hurst: Cell towers have a somewhat bigger impact than power lines in Hurst (RF: 52, ELF: 29), though both contribute meaningfully. Checking your address shows which sources are most relevant to your specific location.
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.
