The short answer
The median build year in Parker is 2001, recent enough that the pipe itself is rarely the cause. On housing this age a house-wide drop more often turns out to be the pressure-reducing valve, and a single weak tap is usually the aerator on that fixture.

Parker has 40,294 occupied homes across 2 ZIP codes. Across all its housing, vacant units included, the median build year is 2001 — the most useful single fact for working out why the water pressure is weak, because it predicts what the supply pipe is made of.

What 2001 tells you about the pipe in Parker
Housing of this vintage generally means copper and the first widespread PEX. Neither corrodes closed, so a genuine whole-house pressure drop in a house of this age is almost always a valve, the meter, or the supply into the property — not the plumbing inside it. More on 2000s supply pipe.
80% of occupied homes in Parker are owner-occupied, 15 points above the CO figure of 65%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.
Median household income across Parker ZIP codes is $142,279, 37% above the CO median of $103,819.

Housing this new in Parker rarely has a materials problem, so the useful first step is the same one but the likely answer is different: count the weak taps, and if it is all of them look at the valve rather than the plumbing. Normal is 45–80 psi, under 40 psi is low — how to check. Whole house, or just the one.
