With 49% of homes built before 1986, lead solder in plumbing is a potential concern. The EPA banned lead solder in 1986, but many older homes retain original plumbing.

Housing Age Profile
With a median build year of 1983, Raymond's housing stock reflects a city built across multiple eras. A substantial share of homes predate 1986 — the year lead solder in plumbing was federally banned — meaning the risk from plumbing materials is unevenly distributed across the city's neighborhoods and property types.
Most homes in Raymond were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Cost Context: What Remediation Means for Raymond Homeowners
At current valuations, Raymond sits in the low remediation-share tier — the equity impact of fixing documented issues is proportionally minor.
Remediation costs in Raymond are relatively low compared to home values. The $800–$1,500 estimated range is a small fraction of median property value. Home values are 48% above the Ohio average.
Lead Exposure Risk for Children in Raymond
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.
When older housing represents 49% of the local inventory or aggregate readings approach the federal action level, an in-home check becomes the standard way to translate citywide averages into the specific reality of an individual Raymond address.
