Housing & Infrastructure in Maud
With 50% of homes built before 1986, lead solder in plumbing is a potential concern. Federal law banned lead solder in drinking-water plumbing in 1986, but many older homes retain original plumbing.
Source: U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS).
Housing Age Profile
Some homes in Maud predate the 1986 federal restrictions on lead in new pipe and solder, so a tap test is a reasonable step for older homes; median build year: 1984.
Over half of homes in Maud were built before 1986, when federal law began restricting lead solder in drinking-water plumbing. Older plumbing may leach lead into drinking water, especially with corrosive water chemistry.

Cost Context: What Remediation Means for Maud Homeowners
Estimated remediation for Maud 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 Maud 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 39% below the Texas average.
Lead Exposure Risk for Children in Maud
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.
If you have young children or are pregnant, consider testing your home's water - especially if your home was built before 1986.
