Local housing stock
Only 26.9 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1971. Mid-century and older housing sits on a bluff above the lake, with ravines carrying drainage down through the developed ground to the shore. Those ravines concentrate flow from a wide area into narrow steep channels, which deepens them over time rather than simply carrying water away.
Climate & seasonal risk
June is the wettest month here at 4.45 inches, part of an annual 35.3 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from CHICAGO WAUKEGAN RGNL AP, 3.1 miles off. June brings the wettest month, and the lake sets what shoreline drainage discharges into. Lake levels move over years rather than days, so a period of high water raises groundwater along the shore for seasons at a time rather than for the length of a storm.
Common water damage problems in Zion
- Multi-year lake level cycles lifting shoreline groundwater for seasons at a time
- Gullies gathering the drainage of many blocks into a single narrow cut
- Bluff retreat driven by groundwater from behind as well as waves at the base
- Post-war cellars where the governing level is the lake rather than last week's rain
