Local housing stock
Of roughly 77,417 housing units, about 35,029 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1995. The old peninsula is raised cottages and early masonry over shallow crawls; newer wards are slabs poured on marsh-edge fill. Tidewater enters the crawl from below on the peninsula and sheets across a slab when a rain cell meets a locked outfall.
Climate & seasonal risk
July is the wettest month here at 7.56 inches, part of an annual 52.18 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from CHARLESTON 3.0 N, 0.8 miles off. July rain only floods when the tide is already in the pipes: stormwater discharges into tidal creeks, so an inch at low water leaves and the same inch at a king tide has no gradient. Sunny-day flooding is the tide alone, backing up through the inlets before any cloud arrives.
Common water damage problems in Charleston
- King tides filling streets and crawl bays on a cloudless afternoon
- July rain landing on a high tide so outfalls lock and the lowest pads take the backup
- Marsh-edge groundwater standing under raised floors even in a dry week
- Historic peninsula details shedding roof water onto neighboring lots that have no side yard left
