Local conditions in Oak Lawn
Serving Oak Lawn and the surrounding area, including Garden Homes.
Local housing stock
Close to nine in ten of the housing here predates 1990 — 87.7 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1966. Chicago bungalows and ranches on full basements, a 1966 median with nearly nine in ten units standing before 1990, packed onto clay that still shows the old farm tiles.
Climate & seasonal risk
May alone accounts for 11.7 percent of the 40.32 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 1.6 miles away at OAK LAWN 1.6 WNW. May leads at 4.73 inches of a 40.32 inch year. On this moraine the rain meets dense till with no natural fall; farm tile of unknown condition is still the drain, and a bungalow basement then takes what a corn field used to send west.
Common moisture and mold problems in Oak Lawn
- Dense Tinley Moraine clay accepting almost none of a 4.73 inch May
- Abandoned farm tile of unknown condition under bungalow blocks
- Mid-century basements with original drain tile that outlets to a ditch with no remaining fall
- Lots so tight that regrading a downspout has almost no room to happen
