Whether your home in Colorado City was built before or after 1986 matters more than the citywide median of 1995, because the 1986 federal lead restrictions cover plumbing installed after that point.

Pre-1970 (Lead Pipes Risk)
Pre-1970 (5%) 1970–1986 (18%) Post-1986 (77%)

Most homes in Colorado City were built after 1986; lead exposure at a tap still depends on its service line and plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Protecting Children from Lead in Colorado City

23%
Homes Built Before 1986

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.

If you have young children or are pregnant, consider testing your home's water - especially if your home was built before 1986.
