Local housing stock
The median home in Hammond dates to 1984, and 62.6 percent of the stock was already standing when the 1990s began. CBS and brick veneer on slab-on-grade, a median year of 1984, and close to three fifths of it standing before 1990, with almost no basement stock on this terrace.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — HAMMOND, 1.8 miles out — puts the annual normal at 62.21 inches, with July heaviest at 6.84. July leads at 6.84 inches of a 62.21 inch year, midsummer cells on a terrace whose table already sits close to the slab. That rain does not need a named canal to pond: the Pleistocene sand-over-clay perches it, and a 1984 stucco or brick base takes the month at the plate while the lot looks only briefly flooded.
Common moisture and mold problems in Hammond
- A perched table in Pleistocene terrace sand holding July rain against 1984 CBS plates for days
- Slab-on-grade with brick or stucco to the ground, so ponded rain wets the first course directly
- Natalbany and Tangipahoa backwater on the lower lots when a 6.84 inch month meets a slow river
- Crawl-less construction, so there is no under-floor air path and wet soil stays against the pad
