Whether your home in Elgin was built before or after 1986 matters more than the citywide median of 2005, because the 1986 federal lead restrictions cover plumbing installed after that point.

Median Year Built

Pre-1986 (lead solder era; lead paint banned 1978)

Pre-1970 (Lead Pipes Risk)

Most homes in Elgin were built after 1986; lead exposure at a tap still depends on its service line and plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.
