Homes around this lab
this county: 55% of 186,315 housing units were built before 1980, below the New Jersey share of 63% (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 1,578,992 homes built before 1980 are in the 8 counties whose centre lies within 25 miles of this lab (Bucks County, Delaware County, Montgomery County, Philadelphia County).
- Asbestos testing: 5 accredited lab sites within 25 miles, about 315,798 older homes per site, fewer than the New Jersey figure of 396,910 older homes per listed site (6 sites).
- Lead paint testing: 4 accredited lab sites within 25 miles, about 394,748 older homes per site, fewer than the New Jersey figure of 476,292 older homes per listed site (5 sites).
