The short answer
The median home in Lynbrook dates from 1944, which puts galvanized steel supply pipe in the frame: it loses bore from the inside and loses it everywhere at once. Weak pressure at every tap points at the supply, while one weak tap usually points at that fixture.

Lynbrook has 7,644 occupied homes across 1 ZIP code. Across all its housing, vacant units included, the median build year is 1944 — 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 1944 tells you about the pipe in Lynbrook
Housing of this vintage generally means galvanized steel as standard, and at this age the inside diameter of a half-inch line can be materially narrower than it was when it was fitted. The classic sign is that pressure is worst at the fixtures furthest from where the water comes in. More on 1940s supply pipe.
75% of occupied homes in Lynbrook are owner-occupied, 28 points above the NY figure of 46%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.

In a town of this vintage the first question in Lynbrook 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.
