Local housing stock
Only 16.4 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1955. Eighty-four percent predates 1990 and the median is mid-1950s, on basements throughout the established neighborhoods. Much of it was built while the sewers were already combined.
Climate & seasonal risk
Of the 40.87 inches that arrive in an average year, 4.32 fall in May; the 1991–2020 normals come from a gauge 2 miles away at S BEND. May leads at four and a third inches out of forty-one, ahead of a winter that adds substantial lake-effect snow.
Common water damage problems in South Bend
- Combined sewers that carry storm and sanitary flow in one pipe
- Basements throughout the older neighborhoods, below the level of those sewers
- Lake-effect snow releasing as meltwater into the same system in spring
- A river through the city whose level backs up the lower outfalls
