What this means for your home

26% of homes in Duncan were built before 1980. EPA notes homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead in their plumbing, so a certified-lab lead test at the tap is a sensible first step in an older home.
Private wells aren't treated or monitored by a utility. North Carolina only requires a one-time test when a new well is built, so a current certified-lab test is the right starting point.

Duncan water questions

Is there city water in Duncan?

EPA's map of community water-system service areas shows no system covering the center of Duncan. Some streets may be served by a small community system, and many homes likely use private wells. Your water bill (or the lack of one) is the quickest way to tell.

How old are homes in Duncan, and does that matter for water?

Census estimates put 26% of Duncan homes as built before 1980. Lead usually comes from a home's own plumbing, not the utility, so in older homes a certified-lab lead test at the tap is the honest starting point.
