There is relatively little exterior lead contamination from lead paint scraping in the UC Area. (Interior is a different story.)

However, that is more than made up for by the volume of tetra-ethel lead
contamination from gasoline usage -- some 70-80+ years worth!
(circa 1910 to circa 1980)

"Obviously" this kind of contamination is directly related to your physical
proximity to major thoroughfares -- like Baltimore, Chestnut, Walnut, Market,
Springfield, Chester, Woodland, 40th, 44th, 47th, etc.
