A legal limit is an enforceable standard, set by the EPA under the Safe Drinking Water Act. Limits weigh health research together with the cost and feasibility of treatment. A health guideline is published by public-health sources and based on health research alone. A utility can meet every legal limit and still be above a published health guideline.

We can't tell for any one home. Lead pipes and lead solder were banned for drinking water in 1986. In Pembroke Pines, 23% of homes were built before 1980 and 0% before 1950 (ACS 5-year 2020–2024, table B25034; the Census groups homes by decade, so 1980 is the closest cutoff to 1986). Older homes are more likely to have lead pipes or solder, but many don't. To check yours, ask City of Hollywood Department of Public Utilities about its lead service line inventory or test your water.
