Local conditions in Lakeland
Serving Lakeland and the surrounding area, including Creekbend.
Local housing stock
Only 37.2 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1983. Post-war frame and later retiree block on slabs, a 1983 median, built around the lakes and across former mine land that can still open.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — LAKELAND 5.3 WNW, 5.4 miles out — puts the annual normal at 52.28 inches, with July heaviest at 8.88. July leads at 8.88 inches of a 52.28 inch year. On this ridge the rain does not have a single river: it finds a sink, a pit lake, or a swallet. A slab on former phosphate land can take water from a throat that opened after the wet July, not from a bank.
Common moisture and mold problems in Lakeland
- Phosphate pits and sinkhole lakes rising into adjacent slabs after a wet July
- Hawthorn and Bone Valley formations opening new throats under 1980s pads
- Lake-to-lake sheetflow with almost no defined channel when 8.88 inches arrives in a month
- Retiree block on slabs with no stem wall, so splash from a pit lake wets the bottom plate
