Census and NOAA figures for the city of Alamo Heights in Bexar County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The stock is old by national standards: 74% of Alamo Heights's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 6% since 2010. The largest single share, 33%, dates from before 1940. That makes it a newer stock than Bexar County as a whole (36% 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 Alamo Heights are older than rentals: a median build year of 1944 against 1967.1 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 Alamo Heights is mostly detached single-family: 67% of units, with 20% 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. 74% of occupied homes in Alamo Heights are owner-occupied, above the Texas share of 63%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Alamo Heights is valued at $779,400 (ACS), above the Texas median of $283,800. Within Bexar County the median is $262,200, so Alamo Heights 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.
The San Antonio Intl Ap station averages 14 nights a year at or below 32°F - a short freeze season.2,3 Heat is the governing season: about 122 days a year reach 90°F and 18 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. Annual precipitation is about 32 inches, with 9 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3
Measurable snow is rare (about 0.2 inches a year).2,3 Cooling dominates the year: about 3,148 cooling degree days against 1,438 heating degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a cooling-led climate, attic ventilation, duct sealing and window solar gain are where the energy code concentrates. Alamo Heights sits in IECC climate zone 2A (Hot-Humid).4
Building permits in Alamo Heights are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
