Local housing stock
About three quarters of the housing here predates 1990 — 75 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1979. 1960s and 1970s brick ranches on crawl spaces along flat suburban streets, a median year of 1979, and three quarters of the units standing before 1990.
Climate & seasonal risk
August alone accounts for 10.8 percent of the 45.5 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 3.2 miles away at RICHMOND INTL AP. August leads at 4.9 inches of a 45.5 inch year, as summer thunderstorms on terraces that are nearly level and drain almost nowhere. The soil on these terraces is a sandy loam over clay that perches water a foot or two down, and an August cloudburst on ground already wet from July fills that layer and stands, so the crawl spaces on the older ranches sit over saturated ground through the hottest, most humid weeks of the year.
Common moisture and mold problems in Montrose
- Nearly level terrace ground with a perching clay layer, so August cloudbursts stand rather than drain
- 1970s crawl spaces over ground that is saturated and steaming through the most humid weeks of summer
- Roadside ditches that were the original drainage, now filled and paved over along many streets
- Ranch houses with low crawl space vents that take water directly when a storm floods the yard
