Housing & Infrastructure in Tutor Key

Housing Age Profile
Homes on the same street in Tutor Key can differ: one may keep original pre-1986 plumbing while another has been replumbed, so the 1995 median is only a starting point.
Most homes in Tutor Key were built after 1986; lead exposure at a tap still depends on its service line and plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Lead Exposure Risk for Children in Tutor Key
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.
A tap test is the direct way to learn the lead level in a given Tutor Key home; 30% of local housing predates 1986.
