Local housing stock
Of roughly 14,290 housing units, about 12,646 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1952. Nearly nine in ten homes predate 1990, mid-century and older construction on slopes running down to the river and to the creeks that cut through the city. Those creek ravines are the local geometry: they carry runoff from a wide area through narrow channels between built-up blocks.
Climate & seasonal risk
September is the wettest month here at 4.64 inches, part of an annual 47.18 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from POUGHKEEPSIE, 2.2 miles off. September is the wettest month because tropical remnants reach the mid-Hudson with rainfall well beyond the routine pattern. The creeks that cut through the city respond within the hour to that kind of rain, and their ravines have very little room to spread.
