In the old days, there were lot less restrictions on septics, so some basic systems were just a 500 gal tank on dry wells, since the 80s they required to be 1000 gal tank with minimum 300 fts of leech fields.
Nowadays days septic usually requires certain distance from the house (75ft?) and 50 ft from a well, so newer systems are mostly mounted, yes it's somewhat above ground.
Septics and wells are very common in Midwest, they actually very easy to maintain, life span for a septic is about 50 years, but if you maintaining right, it can easily last 75-100 years.

的小区，全部是septic和well。好的豪宅都有2-5亩地，高级的有更多的，比如前总统候选人家里，100多亩地，town才不会把管子拉这么老远来，就为了没有几家人的上下水呢。经常一条小路开进森林，走着走着眼前忽然出现一个巨大的豪华房子。。。。
住城市里面多不安全阿，我们这种没有公共交通的地方才是安全的地方。靠腿是要走死人的。
像案例中提到的leach field不够格还真是麻烦。
恢复溪水能力。代价不菲。
可以跟邻居协商，如果邻居有多余的地，写个easement，把leach field做到邻居的地里一部分。给些钱。
而且可以做比较贵的dripping系统，这样leach field占地比较小。
septic系统是死的，人是活的，脑子是要用的。
这个要和engineering公司打好招呼，找到好的时机去阿
比如挖掉土，多填沙，以前农村家里排废水，就是挖个坑填上碎砖碎石。但不知每个city/county 是否都允许。
大约九年前到佛州一个十万多人的小城去买投资房，房检的时候才第一次听说Septic tank 这个玩意儿，顿时想不要了，主要是怕影响以后卖的价格。可realtor说，我们这有一半以上的房子都是Septic tank，这不是个影响因素。后来买了才发现还真是没多少人在意。
所以， 要随大流， 如果当地Septic tank很普遍，那你也不要太当回事。 若你是唯一一家，这得慎重考虑。所以，随大流，随大流！
大约是300左右，不超过400，两年抽一次还好拉。出租房有现金流的阿，
而且这样的不用town里的水和sewage系统的地方，税也低不少阿。
测，哪会那么好说话阿
化气很普遍的。
