Local housing stock
Of roughly 11,046 housing units, about 9,232 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1958. Mid-century and older housing over full basements sits on ground that includes river terrace and loess upland. The city has taken both flooding and severe storm damage in recent years, so a meaningful share of the stock has been repaired at least once and the quality of that work varies.
Climate & seasonal risk
Marshalltown averages 36.39 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at MARSHALLTWN POL CN PL 2.2 miles away, with June the wettest month at 5.7 inches. June brings the wettest month, and the river responds to rainfall across an agricultural basin upstream rather than to what falls locally. Field drainage across that basin delivers runoff efficiently, which shortens the interval between upstream rain and a rise here.
Common water damage problems in Marshalltown
- A river driven by an agricultural basin whose field drainage delivers runoff efficiently
- Housing repaired after recent flood and storm damage, to varying standards
- Loess that absorbs readily and then holds water, losing strength when saturated
- Basements from an era before drain tile was standard, in slow-releasing soil
