Local housing stock
Close to nine in ten of the housing here predates 1990 — 90.9 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1956. Nine in ten homes predate 1990, on full cellars spread between the protected ground and the neighborhoods beyond it. Which side of that line a property is on decides almost everything.
Climate & seasonal risk
June alone accounts for 11.1 percent of the 44.21 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 1.6 miles away at PARKERSBURG. June leads at under five inches within forty-four for the year. The rivers here respond to rain across large catchments upstream rather than to local weather.
Common water damage problems in Parkersburg
- A floodwall covering part of the city, so protection stops at a line on a map
- Two rivers meeting, where a rise on the larger holds the smaller one up
- Interior drainage behind the wall that has to be lifted over during an event
- Cellar walls built straight against the earth with no relief behind them
