Also, it's not just urban areas that should be thinking about this stuff- one of my family members got lead poisoning because our house was on land that used to be an apple orchard, and they had used lead as a pesticide back before 1950. They have programs and stuff in place now, but back in the 80s apparently people weren't as aware or cautious.
