That's not a guarantee, pw prior to the last few years only kept records of the city side pipe material. So the map saying there is a copper service is not a guarantee that the owner side is also copper. The replacement rate of the owner side before flint was very low, so on your street that shows all copper it's likely most are actually still partially lead.

I know for a fact our entire street (albeit a small one) has all turned over their lines since we’ve lived here and the city replaced the mains they lead to. I’m just suggesting ask the owner / landlord.
