Local conditions in Decatur
Serving Decatur and the surrounding area, including H &K Trailer Court, Southwest Manufactured Housing Community.
Local housing stock
Close to nine in ten of the housing here predates 1990 — 87.5 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1960. Frame and brick on full basements, median 1960, 87.5 percent pre-1990, a prairie-and-plant stock on Sangamon alluvium and a grade so slight that a wet May has almost no fall.
Climate & seasonal risk
May alone accounts for 12.2 percent of the 40.44 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 2.1 miles away at DECATUR WTP. May's 4.95 inches falls on a reservoir city. Lake Decatur holds the table up on the flats; prairie silt perches the same rain under ranch basements on the grade. A dam release or a full lake then stacks with the month, and the lowest cellars take both.
Common moisture and mold problems in Decatur
- Lake Decatur holding a May table against flats that were a free-flowing Sangamon when the houses were built
- Sangamon-grade silt holding May rain in a perched sheet above the reservoir flats
- Plant-era fill on the mill flats still wetting from below with no storm
- Combined sewers on the old grid surcharging when May rain hits a system already carrying lake water
