Local housing stock
Building in Lynn clusters in the mid 1940s: the median unit dates to 1946, with 88 percent finished before 1990. Dense wood-frame housing on small lots occupies ground that steps down from the hills to the harbor and the marsh. The low neighborhoods sit on filled and marginal ground at the marsh edge, where the water table is tidal and the fill beneath has been settling since it was placed.
Climate & seasonal risk
Lynn averages 47.26 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at MARBLEHEAD 0.8 SW 4.6 miles away, with October the wettest month at 4.83 inches. October brings the wettest month at the start of the coastal storm season, when a surge on a high tide raises the harbor and the marsh together. The low ground has no head to discharge against during those hours, so rainfall and tidal water arrive at the same streets from opposite directions.
Common water damage problems in Lynn
- Filled marsh-edge ground with a tidal water table beneath the lowest neighborhoods
- Surge on a high tide removing the discharge head for rainfall falling at the same time
- Dense small-lot housing where one roof discharges within feet of the next foundation
- Older fill still consolidating, opening joints that become entry paths
