Local housing stock
Of roughly 23,878 housing units, about 20,961 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1955. Nearly nine in ten homes predate 1990, on full cellars, in neighborhoods that run from the riverfront back into narrow valleys. Houses in the hollows sit on a valley floor a few dozen feet wide.
Climate & seasonal risk
The nearest long-term record — HUNTINGTON 0.6 WSW, 0.5 miles out — puts the annual normal at 47.46 inches, with July heaviest at 5.29. July leads at just over five inches out of forty-seven. What fills a hollow is a single intense cell over the hills behind rather than any general rain along the river.
Common water damage problems in Huntington
- Steep hollows behind the city where a small catchment concentrates onto a narrow floor
- A floodwall that stops the river and leaves the town's own rainfall to be lifted over it
- Cellars cut into hillside toe material that stays saturated after every storm
- Culverts under fills in the hollows, sized long ago and easily closed by debris
