The short answer
Housing in Glen Rock has a median build year of 1952. On stock that old a house-wide pressure drop is the expected finding rather than a surprising one, because galvanized steel narrows from the inside. The figure dates the housing, not the pipe in any particular house.

What 1952 tells you about the pipe in Glen Rock
Housing of this vintage generally means galvanized steel still the norm, with copper appearing towards the end of the decade. A house from these years may have had part of its supply replaced and part left alone, which is why pressure can be fine in one bathroom and poor in another. More on 1950s supply pipe.

In a town of this vintage the first question in Glen Rock is still how many taps are weak, and the answer usually comes back "all of them" — which points at the supply rather than at any fixture. Normal is 45–80 psi, under 40 psi is low, and a gauge settles it in a minute. Whole house is worth a call; one tap is usually yours to fix.
