Housing Age Profile
Construction dates in Creston center on a median of 2009, and the Census figures behind it describe when homes were built, not what materials they contain.
Most homes in Creston were built after 1986; lead exposure at a tap still depends on its service line and plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Creston: 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.
No safe blood lead level in children has been identified, according to CDC, so an area average under 0.010 mg/L does not rule out exposure at home. In Creston, 26% of homes were built before 1986.
