I would like to know what percent of homes contain lead in the Metro Detroit area as opposed to the homes in the West Bloomfield area.

Don't know. Here is a website i found for you:\n\nhttp://www.scorecard.org/index.tcl\n\nYou can type in your zip code and get enviro info regarding your city. I would Guess that WB has NO lead contaminated homes. You could also go to the library and read the big article the detroit free press ran last year (or a couple years ago) on lead in Detroit. Perhaps they mention the suburbs in passing.

The announced this week that they are looking to put a team in Cleveland or St. Louis.  If a team goes into Cleveland, I'd think that it would not be likely that Detroit would get one.

Lead wasn't really used intentionally to kill bacteria, it just did that as a side effect.  Unfortunately, it tended to do the same to humans.  Over the years, we've come up with better means to control bacteria.  The lead in old homes was primarily found in lead water pipes and lead-based paints.  Walls aren't generally very good environments for bacteria anyway, and as the previous poster mentioned, we now put chlorine in tap water, which is more effective than lead at killing bacteria, and less toxic for humans, too.\n\nOverall, people now have better hygiene habits, combined with a previously non-existent knowledge of the extistence of bacteria (and a somewhat irrational fear of them) that leads us to keep our homes rather more bacteria-free than back in the days of lead-based paint and water pipes.

Yeah there is. There's one in Dearborn. It's in Ford Woods. There's a few others but they're mostly found in parks.

Are you speaking of the Michigan Miltia?  If so they have a web page... www.michiganmilita.com.  If not you may be able to contact them about some info.. May be worth a shot.  Hope I helped!

Yes.  There was some lead content in the tube until they discovered a few things.  For one thing, the lead pulled the fluoride OUT of the toothpaste so that all the benefits shown in the laboratory were missing after the toothpaste had been in the tube for a couple of months.  Most of the lead was thereby tied up in the tube and not released into the toothpaste, so the contributions of toothpaste tubes to lead poisoning is questionable, but the possibility that it was doing harm was another reason to discontinue the use of lead in toothpaste tubes.  Also, do a search on "lead poisoning toothpaste" and you will find thousands of references.  Leaded gas and house paints are far and away the greatest historical threat to the general public concerning lead poisoning.

Probably between 6-8 percent, just like the general population. I don't know where you got the 1% from, but it's wrong.

It varies by location from a low of about 7.6% up to 8.8% or so.  If you post the location, I can give you a more accurate answer.
