Hyde Park Infrastructure Age
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
Housing age is a practical proxy for plumbing risk because federal standards changed in 1986, when lead solder was banned from new residential construction, and again earlier — before 1970, lead pipes were themselves commonly installed. Hyde Park's median build year of 1995 sits in the range where both pre- and post-1986 homes are well represented. The bar chart above reflects that mixed picture: the distribution captures pockets of older housing alongside more recent development, and those pockets carry real lead risk potential at the individual property level.
Most homes in Hyde Park were built after 1986, reducing the risk of lead contamination from plumbing. Older homes should still be tested.

How Remediation Costs Compare in Hyde Park
Equity impact data for Hyde Park lands in the favorable tier — remediation claims a small slice of what properties here are worth.
Remediation costs in Hyde Park are relatively low compared to home values. The $0–$800 estimated range is a small fraction of median property value. Home values are 28% above the Utah average.
Hyde Park: Lead Risk & Vulnerable Populations
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.
Older stock in Hyde Park represents 38% of the inventory, and citywide monitoring runs at or above the federal action level — making an in-home read a standard household-level step.
