Still very high and will be for 1,000s of years.

They showed an older couple who moved back on the CBS special last week. They were in their 60s-70s and moved back to the area 3 years after the meltdown.

Also, a group from a University in South Carolina has a lab there, running radiation tests on animals in the area and the effects.

You can book a tour of the area, there are "hot" spots on the grounds and equipment from specs of fuel rods that rained down on the area which prevents permanent habitation, but the levels are generally low for short tours.
