Why lead paint risk concentrates in Camillus
The Village of Camillus grew along Nine Mile Creek and the old Erie Canal route, and its older village center holds many homes built before lead paint was restricted.
Homes built before lead paint was restricted in 1978 can still have it on walls, trim, windows, and doors, and the risk grows as paint ages and deteriorates. That is why a professional inspection, test, or risk assessment is a sensible first step for many Camillus property owners, especially where young children live.
