The median home in the city of New Prague was built in 1994, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Minnesota median of 1979. That is older than the Scott County median of 1997.1 Most of New Prague's housing is recent: only 34% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 8% were built since 2010. The largest single share, 34%, dates from 2000-2009. That makes it a newer stock than Scott County as a whole (23% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 2000s, the common first-time jobs are the first roof replacement, original water heater and HVAC, and warranty paperwork on anything still covered. Owner-occupied homes in New Prague are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1996 against 1991.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.

Housing in New Prague is mostly detached single-family: 65% 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. Home ownership is the norm in New Prague: 77% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, above the Minnesota share of 72%.1 The median owner-occupied home in New Prague is valued at $350,500 (ACS), above the Minnesota median of $329,300. Within Scott County the median is $419,400, so New Prague sits below it.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.

Winters are long: the Mpls Flying Cloud Ap station averages 145 nights a year at or below 32°F and 81 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. Summer heat is moderate: about 14 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is about 31 inches, with 7 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3

Heating dominates the year: about 7,430 heating degree days against 787 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. New Prague sits in IECC climate zone 6A (Cold).4 Building permits in New Prague are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
