Local housing stock
Of roughly 49,502 housing units, about 43,042 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1952. Seven in eight homes predate 1990, dense attached rowhouse stock on stone cellars. The rock beneath carries water along openings that nothing at the surface reveals.
