Housing Age Profile
Utilities keep service line inventories, which can show whether an address in Maumelle has a lead line regardless of the 2007 median build year.
Most homes in Maumelle were built after 1986; lead exposure at a tap still depends on its service line and plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Maumelle: Lead Risk & Vulnerable Populations
Why children are most at risk: The CDC states that no safe blood lead level in children has been identified. Children under 6 absorb lead more readily than adults, and even low levels can cause developmental delays, learning difficulties, and behavioral problems.
Several limits apply to the lead numbers for Maumelle. The figure shown is an average of 90th-percentile results from ZIP codes in the city, and it is below 0.010 mg/L; the federal action level of 0.015 mg/L applies to each water system's own 90th percentile, not to an average like this one, and being below it does not make water free of lead. About 19% of local homes were built before 1986. A test at the home's own tap shows its level, and a filter certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for lead reduction is an option if a test finds lead.
