There's almost certainly quite a bit of lead in the buildings too.

There's lead in paint all over America, just dripping off old buildings into the soil in some places. And asbestos in insulation and other building products. So?
So in certain areas the concentration of lead contamination is worse. Usually, poor urban or industrial areas.
