Local housing stock
Of roughly 49,502 housing units, about 43,042 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1952. Dense rowhouse and twin construction predominates with a median build year of 1952, built close together on limestone and dolomite bedrock.
Climate & seasonal risk
Allentown averages 47.36 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at ALLENTOWN INTL AP 4.2 miles away, with July the wettest month at 5.3 inches. July leads at 5.3 inches, and where that water goes underground is the local question. Carbonate rock dissolves along joints over time, and concentrated discharge from a broken lateral or a downspout accelerates it far faster than rainfall spread across a lawn ever would.
Common moisture and mold problems in Allentown
- Carbonate bedrock where a leaking pipe can enlarge a void faster than any natural process
- Sinkholes opening under streets and yards with little surface warning beforehand
- Continuous rowhouse construction carrying one roof or party-wall failure into several homes
- Dense blocks with almost no permeable ground, so nearly all rainfall becomes runoff
