Housing Age Profile
A median build year of 1994 in Ranger is characteristic of a mixed-era city where plumbing risk depends heavily on the specific property. Homes built before 1986 may have lead-soldered copper joints; those from before 1970 face the added possibility of lead service lines. The percentages above capture how much of the residential stock falls into each risk era.
Most homes in Ranger were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.
