Local housing stock
Building in New Orleans clusters in the early 1960s: the median unit dates to 1960, with 82.1 percent finished before 1990. Raised shotgun and Creole cottages on piers keep living floors above a street flood, but the open bay under the joists fills first and stays wet until it is pumped. Post-war slabs in the later wards have no such gap, so the same standing water crosses the floor and travels the finish.
Climate & seasonal risk
Of the 60.12 inches that arrive in an average year, 6.46 fall in August; the 1991–2020 normals come from a gauge 5.7 miles away at NEW ORLEANS LAKEFRONT AP. August is the month the pumps are most often outrun. Rain has no downhill to leave by, and decades of subsidence have dropped many lots relative to the canals, so runoff ponds along the curb and then enters the house from the side rather than from a river overtopping a levee.
Common water damage problems in New Orleans
- Street flooding that waits on parish pumps, then crosses a post-war slab as Category 3 once it has been in the gutter
- Pier bays under shotgun and Creole cottages holding a pond against the joists even when the rooms stayed dry
- Subsided slabs that no longer shed away from the wall, so pumped-out streets still drain back toward the house
- Supply-line and drain failures in single-story stock where a small leak covers the whole floor before anyone sees it
