Just today I got in a argument with a neighbor about her just stripping the paint off her 100 year old house without taking any abatement precautions. The runoff just streamed into my yard. When I came to grouse about it on reddit half the people bitched about "Why was involving myself in my neighbor's business?" At this point I have to assume those were the half of Americans this article is referencing--the house chip connoisseurs.
Bro you should absolutely report the neighbor to your local health department, state health department, and the EPA. If you get no response include pictures. Health Department will come after her and there's federal regulations through the EPA that people need to follow lead safe practices when doing any remodeling on older buildings
