Housing & Infrastructure in Pie Town
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
Housing age is a practical proxy for plumbing risk because federal standards changed in 1986, when lead solder was banned from new residential construction, and again earlier - before 1970, lead pipes were themselves commonly installed. Pie Town's median build year of 2008 sits in the range where both pre- and post-1986 homes are well represented. The bar chart above reflects that mixed picture: the distribution captures pockets of older housing alongside more recent development, and those pockets carry real lead risk potential at the individual property level.
Most homes in Pie Town were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Cost Context: What Remediation Means for Pie Town Homeowners
Because property values in Pie Town comfortably exceed estimated remediation costs, the equity impact here is proportionally small.
Remediation costs in Pie Town are relatively low compared to home values. The $0–$800 estimated range is a small fraction of median property value. Home values are 19% above the New Mexico average.
Lead Exposure Risk for Children in Pie Town
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.
Routinely in Pie Town, where 34% of housing predates the solder ban and aggregate utility readings hover near the federal threshold, a faucet-level draw functions as a standard household step for families with small kids.
