The relatively small 6.8% rental share does not change safety needs, but it can make property decisions more direct.
The local median home dates to 2002, and modern ventilation can carry odor beyond the room where an incident occurred.
With 3.0% of seniors living alone, private cleanup communication may need to include a relative who lives somewhere else.
The 100.0% single-family share means odor may move through connected rooms and ventilation even without shared walls between households.

Health and safety
Serious Health Risks From Biohazards in Greater Baltimore Businesses and Homes
The health hazards from biohazards are real. What is visible usually represents only part of the contamination.
Bloodborne Pathogens
Hepatitis C and B, along with HIV, can survive in blood. Hepatitis B may survive on a surface for at least seven days, according to the CDC.
Sewage, Bacteria and Mold
Raw sewage carries hepatitis A, E. coli and salmonella, while wet materials can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours.
Why Home Cleaning Products Cannot Remove Biohazards
Bleach and sprays clean the surface but leave fluids in carpet pad, subfloor and drywall. Odor and bacteria recur when material is left behind, which makes its removal part of decontamination services.
Decomposition and Airborne Contamination
Decomposition releases fluids, bacteria and gases that soak into floors and travel through vents to other rooms.
