Local housing stock
Only 7 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1938. Almost the entire stock is pre-1990 and a great deal of it is pre-war, on stone and early poured cellars. Headwater ground means the river here is small rather than large, and the city's water problems are mostly about what the ground does rather than what the channel does.
Climate & seasonal risk
June is the wettest month here at 4.91 inches, part of an annual 38.29 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from JACKSON 3.2 W, 3.2 miles off. June brings the wettest month onto glacial till that parts with water slowly. The seasonal table rises within a day of a heavy storm and takes days to fall, so cellars stay under pressure well after the weather has cleared.
Common water damage problems in Jackson
- Pre-war stone cellars with nothing behind the wall to relieve pressure
- Till that holds the seasonal table high for days after a storm
- Original clay building sewers across neighborhoods of a single era
- Deep seasonal frost working on saturated masonry every winter
