Local housing stock
About half of the housing here predates 1990 — 49.9 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1990. A 1990 median splits older east-side stucco on slabs from west-side tract that followed the oil and the freeway. Both sit on alluvium that wicks salts; neither was detailed for a water table that irrigation and a rare February storm both raise.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — BAKERSFIELD 6.1 WSW, 4.2 miles out — puts the annual normal at 8.63 inches, with February heaviest at 1.81. February's 1.81 inches is a fifth of an 8.63-inch year. After months of tule fog and zero rain, that storm lands on alkali crust and compacted alluvium that will not take it, so water sheets to the lowest pad and sits against stucco that has been baking since March.
Common moisture and mold problems in Bakersfield
- Alkali alluvium turning a rare February storm into sheet flow against slabs that stay dry the other ten months
- Tule fog keeping stucco and sills damp for weeks without a measurable rain
- Oil-field irrigation and canal seepage raising a water table the 8-inch annual total never explains
- West-side 1990s veneer with no stem, so splash from irrigation wets the bottom plate all summer
