This is a very big deal if you spend time around small aircraft (hangar floors in particular sometimes have terrifyingly high lead levels.) But if you’re not spending time close to aircraft, the amount of lead you’ll be exposed to is negligible - at least compared to auto emissions, which were ubiquitous and extremely concentrated in residential neighborhoods. Unfortunately the lead remains in the soil, so there’s still exposure to it today.
