Housing Age Profile
Lead solder was federally prohibited in new plumbing in 1986. In Dammeron Valley, the median build year of 2007 puts a majority of homes in the lower-risk category for that specific contamination pathway - though the pre-1986 share shown above still carries real exposure potential at the individual household level.
Most homes in Dammeron Valley were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.
