The short answer
The median build year in Green Cove Springs is 1998, 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.

What 1998 tells you about the pipe in Green Cove Springs
Housing of this vintage generally means copper as standard and the last of the polybutylene, which stopped being installed in 1995. Pressure complaints in houses this age are more often about the pressure-reducing valve drifting out of adjustment than about the pipe. More on 1990s supply pipe.
82% of occupied homes in Green Cove Springs are owner-occupied, 16 points above the FL figure of 66%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.

In Green Cove Springs the first check is how many taps are affected, and on housing of this age a single weak one is the common case — an aerator or a supply stop, not the system. Normal supply is 45–80 psi; under 40 psi is low, and a gauge tells you in a minute. Whole house is a call; one tap is not.
