Housing age data helps assess potential lead pipe and infrastructure risks. Newer housing stock generally means lower plumbing-related contamination risk.

Housing Age Profile

Cities with large shares of pre-1986 housing carry elevated aggregate risk from lead-soldered plumbing; Donnelly sits on the lower end of that spectrum. The median build year of 2009 reflects a housing stock in which post-ban construction is dominant - meaning lead-soldered copper joints are less prevalent across the city as a whole. Still, aggregate figures don't tell you what's happening inside a specific older home. Any structure built before 1986, and particularly those built before 1970 when lead pipes were commonly installed, can still present meaningful lead risk regardless of the city-wide picture.

Most homes in Donnelly were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Donnelly: Remediation Cost in Perspective

Low proportionality - that's the Donnelly picture when remediation costs are placed against typical home equity.

Median Home Value
$688,800
Est. Remediation
$1,200
Remediation as % of home value 0.2%

Remediation costs in Donnelly are relatively low compared to home values. The $800–$1,500 estimated range is a small fraction of median property value. Home values are 107% above the Idaho average.

Protecting Children from Lead in Donnelly

26%
Homes Built Before 1986

Why children are most at risk: The CDC states there is no safe level of lead exposure for children. Children under 6 absorb lead more readily than adults, and even low levels can cause developmental delays, learning difficulties, and behavioral problems.

Aggregate sampling rests beneath the federal action threshold here, while only 26% of Donnelly housing predates the solder rule change.
