Census and NOAA figures for the borough of Oakmont in Allegheny County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The stock is old by national standards: 73% of Oakmont's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 9% since 2010. The largest single share, 30%, dates from before 1940. That makes it an older stock than Allegheny County as a whole (77% built before 1980).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. Owner-occupied homes in Oakmont are older than rentals: a median build year of 1956 against 1972.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.
Oakmont has a mixed housing stock: 50% detached houses, 15% attached or townhouse units and 20% in buildings of five or more units.1 56% of occupied homes in Oakmont are owner-occupied, below the Pennsylvania share of 69%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Oakmont is valued at $334,500 (ACS), above the Pennsylvania median of $254,500. Within Allegheny County the median is $227,600, so Oakmont sits above 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 Pittsburgh Allegheny Co Ap station averages 106 nights a year at or below 32°F and 36 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. Hot days are uncommon: about 8 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Rainfall is substantial: about 41 inches a year, 8 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 5,406 heating degree days against 826 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. Oakmont sits in IECC climate zone 5A (Cold).4 Building permits in Oakmont are normally issued by the borough building department.5,6
