Key Contaminants Detected in Mansfield
Based on EPA violation records. Check your ZIP code report for system-specific contaminant data.
How Old Is Mansfield'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
If your home in Mansfield predates 1986, testing the tap is the direct way to learn about lead; the median build year of 2007 cannot answer that for you.
Most homes in Mansfield were built after 1986; lead exposure at a tap still depends on its service line and plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

Mansfield: Remediation Cost in Perspective
Estimated remediation for Mansfield is a small fraction of median property value - one percent or less - though the ratio does not describe any single household.
Estimated remediation costs in Mansfield can be compared with local home values. The $300–$800 estimated range can be set against the median property value; actual costs vary by home. Home values are 66% above the Texas average.
Protecting Children from Lead in Mansfield
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.
Several limits apply to the lead numbers for Mansfield. The figure shown is an average of 90th-percentile results from ZIP codes in the city, and it is below 0.010 mg/L; the federal action level of 0.015 mg/L applies to each water system's own 90th percentile, not to an average like this one, and being below it does not make water free of lead. About 18% of local homes were built before 1986. A test at the home's own tap shows its level, and a filter certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for lead reduction is an option if a test finds lead.

Historical Flood-Claim Evidence for Mansfield
Historical NFIP data for Mansfield contains 154 flood insurance claims. Among claims with payment data, the average reported building, contents, and ICC component sum is $35,529. Among ZIP codes with claim records, 0% have an A- or V-family dominant rated zone recorded in those historical claims. This is not a complete current FEMA property-map inventory.
How flooding affects water quality: Flood events can introduce sewage, agricultural runoff, and industrial chemicals into water supplies. Even after floodwaters recede, contamination can persist in wells and aging infrastructure. The $500 remediation estimate shown here excludes flood insurance and is not derived from NFIP claim count.
Claim count does not establish current property risk. Check the exact address in FEMA's current map and obtain a property-specific insurance quote when relevant.
