Local housing stock
Only 27.7 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1965. A 1965-median mix of mill-and-rail housing on the bottoms and frame houses on the loess face, full basements in both, with the Union Pacific yards still occupying the flats.
Climate & seasonal risk
May is the wettest month here at 4.97 inches, part of an annual 34.52 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from COUNCIL BLUFFS 2.1 SSE, 1.7 miles off. May's 4.97 inches on the bottoms is a Missouri-and-Indian-Creek problem; on the bluffs it is a loess problem. The oxbow of Lake Manawa holds the lowest flats up; the same pulse pipes through silt on the face and cuts a void at the footing. This is not Sioux City's Floyd-and-Big-Sioux junction.
Common moisture and mold problems in Council Bluffs
- Lake Manawa oxbow holding May water against railroad-fill housing on the bottoms
- Indian Creek jumping the bluff-base streets when a slow remnant sits on a full Missouri
- Loess bluffs piping and slumping after the same May storms that flood the yards
- 1960s basements on the flats with floor drains tied to a system that surcharges when the river is high
