Local housing stock
Only 28.3 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1974. Seven in ten homes predate 1990, largely single-story on crawl spaces and slabs a few feet above tidewater. The consequence of subsidence is that this stock is slowly getting lower relative to the water it sits beside, so a house built with adequate freeboard decades ago may have considerably less today.
Climate & seasonal risk
July alone accounts for 11.1 percent of the 47.83 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 3.8 miles away at LANGLEY AFB. July is the wettest month, and the mechanism that matters most is not any single storm but the trend beneath them. Tidal flooding that once required a storm now occurs on high tides alone, and the same rainfall arrives at a drainage system with progressively less head available to discharge.
Common water damage problems in Hampton
- Land subsidence combining with sea level rise, so freeboard decreases over the decades
- Tidal flooding on high tides alone, without any storm involved
- Drainage outfalls with progressively less head available to discharge
- Crawl spaces a few feet above tidewater, flooding from a rising table rather than runoff
