Local housing stock
Building in Bloomington clusters in the mid 1980s: the median unit dates to 1985, with 56.9 percent finished before 1990. Just over half the housing predates 1990, mixed basement and crawl space construction on karst limestone, alongside a large rental inventory serving the university. Basements cut into this rock can intersect solution features, and where they do the water arrives through the rock rather than through the soil.
Climate & seasonal risk
Of the 49.38 inches that arrive in an average year, 5.41 fall in June; the 1991–2020 normals come from a gauge 0.7 miles away at BLOOMINGTON INDIANA UNIV. June brings the wettest month, and much of what falls disappears into sinkholes and swallets rather than running to a surface stream. That underground drainage moves quickly along routes set by the rock, so heavy rain can surface far from where it fell and enter a basement with nothing visible outside.
Common water damage problems in Bloomington
- Underground drainage through solution features that surfaces far from where the rain fell
- Basements excavated into limestone that may intersect a flow path
- Rental housing on an academic calendar, standing empty when failures go unnoticed
- Quarry and cave country where a century of extraction has opened the rock further
