Local housing stock
Over four fifths of the housing here predates 1990 — 84.2 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1942. Pre-war triple-deckers and later frame on full basements, a 1942 median with more than four fifths standing before 1990, packed along the Mystic and up the Fells.
Climate & seasonal risk
December is the wettest month here at 4.91 inches, part of an annual 48.44 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from WINCHESTER 0.7 SE, 2 miles off. December leads at 4.91 inches of a 48.44 inch year. The Fells reservoirs and the lakes are a controlled head of water; when they spill or when December rain hits a full system, the Mystic at the Square has no extra room, and 1942 cellars along the bank take it.
