The short answer
Housing in Verona has a median build year of 1953. 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.

Verona has 5,840 occupied homes across 1 ZIP code. Across all its housing, vacant units included, the median build year is 1953 — 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 this site is
PressureTrace is a referral service, not a plumbing contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We do not perform plumbing work, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.Verona sits 13 years older than the NJ median of 1966. Of the 449 NJ towns we route calls in, its housing is older than 90% of them, and by number of homes it ranks 173rd.
What 1953 tells you about the pipe in Verona
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.
78% of occupied homes in Verona are owner-occupied, 15 points above the NJ figure of 63%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.

Before calling anyone in Verona, check whether every tap is weak or just one. On housing this old a whole-house drop is the expected finding, because galvanized steel loses bore from the inside and loses it everywhere at once. Normal supply is 45–80 psi and under 40 psi is low — how to test it in a minute. Whole house is a supply problem worth a call; one tap is usually a five-minute job you can do yourself.
