Local housing stock
Building in Waltham clusters in the early 1960s: the median unit dates to 1961, with 78.3 percent finished before 1990. Brick, triple-decker and frame stock on fieldstone and block foundations, a median year of 1961 and 78.3 percent finished before 1990.
Climate & seasonal risk
December alone accounts for 10.1 percent of the 49.29 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 6 miles away at CAMBRIDGE 0.9 NNW. December leads at 4.97 inches of a 49.29 inch year, an unusually even distribution with the peak in the cold season rather than the summer. Winter rain on frozen or saturated ground has nowhere to go and very little chance to evaporate, so the wet season here is also the season with the least drying.
Common moisture and mold problems in Waltham
- A winter-peaking wet season with minimal evaporation, so ground stays loaded for months
- Fieldstone foundations on older stock with mortar that has washed out at the base
- Drumlin slopes delivering water down to the flatter river ground where much of the housing sits
- Freeze-thaw cycling through the wettest months, opening joints that were tight in autumn
