Local housing stock
The median home in Chicago dates to 1953, and 80.4 percent of the stock was already standing when the 1990s began. Brick bungalows and two-flats on full basements, a 1953 median with four fifths standing before 1990, packed onto South Fork fill from McKinley Park through South Lawndale, with party walls and floor drains on the same combined lateral.
Climate & seasonal risk
Of the 34.42 inches that arrive in an average year, 4.09 fall in May; the 1991–2020 normals come from a gauge 4.9 miles away at CHICAGO MIDWAY AP. May's 4.09 inches is the peak of a 34.42 inch year at Midway, not O'Hare. This water is Bubbly Creek packinghouse fill and a Deep Tunnel that still lets the South Fork surcharge a 1953 bungalow before the dropshafts catch up.
Common moisture and mold problems in Chicago
- Bubbly Creek packinghouse fill holding a May table under southwest bungalow cellars
- Deep Tunnel dropshafts that still lag a Midway cell, so combined laterals surcharge first
- Party-wall two-flats on the South Fork where one gutter failure wets both addresses
- 1953 masonry on slaughterhouse ground that weeps on a fair day with no storm
