Homes around this lab

San Juan Municipio: 74% of 201,026 housing units were built before 1980, above the Puerto Rico share of 53% (Census ACS 2020–2024, table B25034). EPA links lead-based paint to homes built before 1978, and asbestos was common in building materials of that era. The ACS groups years by decade, so 1980 is the nearest cut.

Older homes within 25 miles

About 491,731 homes built before 1980 are in the 28 counties whose centre lies within 25 miles of this lab (Aguas Buenas Municipio, Aibonito Municipio, Barranquitas Municipio, Bayamon Municipio, Caguas Municipio, Canovanas Municipio…).

  • Asbestos testing: 1 accredited lab site within 25 miles, about 491,731 older homes per site, fewer than the Puerto Rico figure of 860,227 older homes per listed site (1 site).
  • Lead paint testing: 1 accredited lab site within 25 miles, about 491,731 older homes per site, fewer than the Puerto Rico figure of 860,227 older homes per listed site (1 site).
