How Old Is Harned's Housing Stock?
Housing age data helps assess potential lead pipe and infrastructure risks. Newer housing stock generally means lower plumbing-related contamination risk.
Source: U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS).
Housing Age Profile
Median build year in Harned: 1992; a tap test shows what your own water delivers.
Most homes in Harned 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 Harned
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.
Homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead pipes, fixtures or solder, and census figures put that share of Harned housing at about 23%. The lead figure used here, an average of ZIP-level 90th-percentile results, sits under 0.010 mg/L. Neither number shows what flows from a particular family's faucet; a test of that faucet is the only direct measure.
