Local housing stock
Close to nine in ten of the housing here predates 1990 — 87.5 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1960. Prewar and early postwar stock on full cellars across ground with almost no fall. The reservoir beside the city holds its level rather than passing what arrives straight through.
Climate & seasonal risk
May alone accounts for 12.2 percent of the 40.44 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 2.1 miles away at DECATUR WTP. May leads at five inches within forty for the year, delivered by intense spring cells. Prairie ground takes very little once the first inch is down.
