Wearing sandals with good footbeds helps (naot or memphisto are two names I like).

If you're still wearing flipflops or going barefoot, then good for you.

Senior, in your case, since you're planning to stay in Vermont, why are you worried about radon in The Villages?
In Vermont, you probably won't be wearing sandals a whole lot.
People there could probably be of more help with suggestions about what works in a colder climate.
I have to chime in with Barefoot here. I have to wonder just why so many posts are questions to us, who've left the north for this wonderful place. As to answering your question this time.....I see NO difference in what floors we've had over the years. I don't spend A LOT of time standing in my current house anyway. When I'm home, I'm watching t.v. or sitting doing other stuff. IF I still lived in the Frozen Tundra I'd be miserable with the cold weather and dampness that comes with it...just saying!
