Local conditions in De Kalb
Serving De Kalb and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
The median home in De Kalb dates to 1978, and 67.3 percent of the stock was already standing when the 1990s began. Frame and brick houses on piers and crawl spaces along a small courthouse town, a median year of 1978, and about two thirds of the stock standing before 1990.
Climate & seasonal risk
January is the wettest month here at 6.2 inches, part of an annual 60.26 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from GHOLSON 8 W, 15.6 miles off. January leads at 6.2 inches of a 60.26 inch year, at the bottom of a wet season that runs from December into April on ground that never dries in between. The flatwoods clay here is tight and gray, holding water at the surface rather than passing it, so by January the yards are saturated, the crawl spaces are damp, and there is neither sun nor wind to change that until spring.
Common moisture and mold problems in De Kalb
- Tight gray flatwoods clay holding a sixty-inch year at the surface with nowhere for a January rain to go
- Crawl spaces sitting in saturated ground from December to April with no evaporation to relieve them
- Pier houses with skirting that traps a winter's worth of humid air against the floor joists
- Roads and drives on the clay ponding for days and sending sheet flow toward the lowest house on the block
