Houses Built Prior to 1950

Neighborhood: Eden Park
Measurement Period: 2018-2022
This indicator shows the percentage of houses in the area built prior to 1950.
 
Numerator = Total estimate of housing units built prior to 1950
Denominator = Total estimate of housing units

Why is this important?

Houses built prior to 1950 that have not undergone substantial updates may contain hazardous materials. Lead based paint, which was banned in the United States in 1977, is a known toxin that causes nervous system damage, stunted growth and delayed development and is especially toxic to children under the age of six. Lead poisoning remains a major environmental health problem in the United States and the common source of exposure is dust from deteriorating lead paint in older homes. Homes built prior to 1950 are also likely to have asbestos insulation; the long-term inhalation of asbestos fibers is known to trigger cancer development specifically malignant mesothelioma and other lung diseases such as asbestosis.

Technical note: The U.S. Census Bureau calculates 90% confidence intervals for American Community Survey estimates. Use caution when interpreting values with wide confidence intervals. Confidence intervals that are farther away from estimates in either direction indicate uncertainty due to small survey sample sizes. The U.S. Census Bureau does not recommend comparing overlapping 5-year periods since much of the data in each estimate are the same. Use caution when comparing estimates for census tracts over time as these geographies are redefined with each decennial census according to population changes.
