Local housing stock
Only 18.4 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1974. This is 1950s through 1970s subdivision stock with full basements, built on dense till in a village that grew faster than its drainage did. Foundations of that era were coated rather than drained, and many of these basements were finished decades later without anything being added beneath the slab.
Climate & seasonal risk
June is the wettest month here at 4.68 inches, part of an annual 37.33 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from PALATINE 1.3 E, 2.2 miles off. June rain falls on till that accepts very little and on a village with almost no natural gradient. The separate storm system carries what it can, and once it is at capacity the surplus finds the lowest ground, which in a subdivision of full basements is inside the houses rather than on the street.
Common water damage problems in Arlington Heights
- Storm sewers reaching capacity in a village with no gradient to carry the surplus away
- 1950s to 1970s foundations relying on an applied coating rather than a drainage layer
- Basements finished long after construction, with no drain tile beneath the slab
- Dense till keeping the seasonal table high for days after a June storm
