Census and NOAA figures for the city of Little Rock in Pulaski County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Little Rock was built in 1978, about the same as the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Arkansas median of 1987.1 About 53% of Little Rock's housing units were built before 1980, close to the national share, and 12% since 2010.1 Owner-occupied homes in Little Rock are older than rentals: a median build year of 1977 against 1982.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.
Housing in Little Rock is mostly detached single-family: 60% of units, with 29% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Little Rock, with 54% of occupied homes owner-occupied (66% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Little Rock is valued at $236,400 (ACS), above the Arkansas median of $188,000.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.
The Little Rock Ap Adams Fld station averages 50 nights a year at or below 32°F and 6 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summers are hot: about 76 days a year reach 90°F and 8 reach 100°F.2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies.
Rainfall is substantial: about 50 inches a year, 15 days of it an inch or more.2,3 Heavy rainfall makes flashing, drainage and ventilation details the difference between a sound assembly and a wet one. Snowfall averages about 4 inches a year.2,3 Heating and cooling loads are both real: about 3,165 heating and 1,989 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).2,3
Little Rock sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Little Rock are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
