The median home in the city of Bellevue was built in 1938, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Kentucky median of 1982. That is older than the Campbell County median of 1972.1 Older housing stock means a contractor's first job is finding what is behind the finish - wiring, plumbing and roof decking - before a price is final. The stock is old by national standards: 91% of Bellevue's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 1% since 2010. The largest single share, 64%, dates from before 1940. That makes it a newer stock than Campbell County as a whole (57% built before 1980).1 Pre-1940 houses often have unlined chimneys, plaster walls and balloon framing, which change the scope of almost every trade.

Owner-occupied and rented homes in Bellevue are of similar age: median build years 1938 and 1938.1 Housing in Bellevue is mostly detached single-family: 68% of units, with 13% 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. 70% of occupied homes in Bellevue are owner-occupied, in line with the Kentucky share of 68%.1

The median owner-occupied home in Bellevue is valued at $206,500 (ACS), close to the Kentucky median of $205,600. Within Campbell County the median is $252,000, so Bellevue sits below it.1 Winters are long: the Cincinnati Lunken Ap station averages 102 nights a year at or below 32°F and 29 at or below 20°F.2,3 Long winters put freeze-thaw, ice dams and snow load at the center of roofing and masonry decisions. Summers bring about 27 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3

Rainfall is substantial: about 43 inches a year, 10 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. Heating dominates the year: about 4,804 heating degree days against 1,125 cooling degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a heating-led climate, insulation and air sealing carry most of the energy-code weight for any work that opens the envelope.

Bellevue sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Bellevue are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
