Local housing stock
Close to three fifths of the housing here predates 1990 — 55.9 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1985. The stock mixes older housing with substantial newer growth, on thin soil over rock. Where limestone is close, an excavated basement sits in backfill that fills rather than drains, and openings in the rock carry water along routes that owe nothing to the surface slope.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — CINCINNATI NORTHERN KY AP, 3.7 miles out — puts the annual normal at 45.26 inches, with June heaviest at 4.75. June brings the wettest month as convective storms on ground with very little storage above the rock. The soil fills quickly and water then travels along the rock, arriving at foundations from directions and distances the surface gives no hint of.
Common water damage problems in Florence
- Thin soil over limestone with very little storage before water reaches the rock
- Voids in the limestone moving water along lines the ground above does not follow
- Basement excavations surrounded by backfill that collects and holds
- Subdivisions added to catchments that were sized for farmland
