Children drinking private well water have higher blood lead than those with city water.

However, the strength of the association between water source (private well or regulated water utility) and blood Pb concentration is highly significant ( Z = 8.13, P < 0.0001) even when controlling for other variables that may indicate other exposure sources (such as household age, an indicator of the risk of exposure from dust and soil containing remnants of Pb paint).
