Local housing stock
Building in Somerville clusters in the late 1930s: the median unit dates to 1938, with 84.2 percent finished before 1990. Dense frame triple-deckers predominate, built close together on small lots across hills and the filled low ground between them.
Climate & seasonal risk
December is the wettest month here at 4.97 inches, part of an annual 49.29 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from CAMBRIDGE 0.9 NNW, 1.3 miles off. December leads at 4.97 inches, a cold-season peak landing when evaporation is minimal. On filled ground the water table sits high and does not move much, so a pre-war basement in the low blocks holds whatever the season delivers until spring.
Common moisture and mold problems in Somerville
- Filled marsh ground in the low blocks holding the water table close to basement floors
- Triple-decker construction carrying one unit's failure down through the floors below
- Pre-war masonry basements built with no damp-proofing of any kind
- Lots so tight that regrading or exterior drainage work has almost no room to happen
