Local housing stock
Of roughly 9,575 housing units, about 6,584 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1975. Roughly seven in ten homes predate 1990, and the stock has been steadily added to as the city absorbed commuter growth from Portland. That has produced a mixture of old worker housing, post-war infill, and recent subdivisions, with foundations from four different eras of practice sometimes within a single street.
Climate & seasonal risk
October alone accounts for 10.7 percent of the 50.45 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 2.4 miles away at PORTLAND 5.5 WNW. October brings the heaviest rain of a fifty-inch year, and the river through the city serves an active industrial operation as well as draining its catchment. Flow is managed for that purpose, so the level beside these properties reflects operational decisions alongside whatever is arriving from upstream.
