Census and NOAA figures for the city of Alvarado in Johnson County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Alvarado was built in 1999, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Texas median of 1992. That is in line with the Johnson County median of 1997.1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Owner-occupied homes in Alvarado are newer than rentals: a median build year of 2004 against 1978.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.
Housing in Alvarado is mostly detached single-family: 75% of units, with 8% in buildings of five or more units. Mobile and manufactured homes are 10% of units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. 75% of occupied homes in Alvarado are owner-occupied, above the Texas share of 63%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Alvarado is valued at $249,000 (ACS), below the Texas median of $283,800. Within Johnson County the median is $285,900, so Alvarado sits below it.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.
The Arlington Muni Ap station averages 36 nights a year at or below 32°F - a short freeze season.2,3 Heat is the governing season: about 106 days a year reach 90°F and 22 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 36 inches, with 10 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3
Cooling dominates the year: about 2,824 cooling degree days against 2,126 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. Alvarado sits in IECC climate zone 2A (Hot-Humid).4 Building permits in Alvarado are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
