Housing Age Profile
Why does housing age matter for water safety? Homes built before 1986 may have lead-soldered copper plumbing joints - a practice banned that year. White Mountain Lake's median build year of 1990 places much of the city's housing in the post-ban era, reducing that specific risk pathway for most residents.
Most homes in White Mountain Lake were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.
