Local housing stock
Of roughly 161,908 housing units, about 141,243 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1942. Brick and frame on full basements predominates, stepped up hillsides so one house's downspout is the next house's uphill wall, with mine-void and fill ground in some of the older industrial flats.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — PITTSBURGH ALLEGHENY CO AP, 6.5 miles out — puts the annual normal at 41.34 inches, with June heaviest at 4.58. June leads at 4.58 inches of a 41.34 inch year. On these slopes the rain is a delivery system: it runs the hillside, fills the uphill side of every basement, and in the flats it lands on combined sewers that surcharge into the same cellars.
Common moisture and mold problems in Pittsburgh

- Combined sewers in the older flats surcharging into basements during June storms
- Coal-measure shale and clay slumping slowly on wet slopes and cracking foundation walls
