Local conditions in St. Charles
Serving St. Charles and the surrounding area, including New Town.
Local housing stock
Only 43.6 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1986. Just over half predates 1990, with the historic core on the higher bluff ground and newer building spread across the bottoms. Basements are usual away from the floodplain.
Climate & seasonal risk
May alone accounts for 11.9 percent of the 45.71 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 1.3 miles away at ST CHARLES ELM PT. May leads at five and a half inches out of forty-six, in the season when snowmelt and rain across two enormous basins can arrive together.
