Local housing stock
Of roughly 2,784 housing units, about 1,541 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1988. Custom frame on full basements, a median year of 1988, and a little over half of it standing before 1990, set on glacial kettles with private wells and septic.
Climate & seasonal risk
Long Grove averages 38.59 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at BUFFALO GROVE 1.5 N 2.7 miles away, with June the wettest month at 4.62 inches. June leads at 4.62 inches of a 38.59 inch year. On this ground that burst does not enter a street sewer: it fills a kettle the lot was cut around, the perched table rises under a 1988 basement that may sit only a few feet above it, and the next lot over, on a kame, can stay dry through the same month.
Common moisture and mold problems in Long Grove
- Kettle depressions on large lots holding June rain as a perched table against 1988 basements
- Septic fields in the same wet sand-and-silt, saturating the soil the house already sits on
- Wooded north walls that never dry between June cells, so a buried basement stays cold and wet
- No curb-and-gutter grid, so every lot is its own drainage system and a filled swale on one parcel wets the next
