Local housing stock
About three quarters of the housing here predates 1990 — 74.1 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1972. Three quarters predates 1990, on full basements across sandy bottomland. Sand of this kind carries a river's level a long way back from the bank.
Climate & seasonal risk
Columbus averages 28.67 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at COLUMBUS 3 NE 2.4 miles away, with June the wettest month at 4.69 inches. June leads at under five inches within twenty-nine for the year. What matters more than rainfall is where the channels have decided to run this decade.
Common water damage problems in Columbus
- Braided sand-bed channels that shift within their beds rather than staying fixed
- Sand carrying the rivers' level sideways well beyond the visible bank
- Two rivers meeting, so a rise on either reaches the same low ground
- Ice on shallow braided channels, which lodges easily and backs water up
