Census and NOAA figures for the city of Yoakum in Lavaca County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Yoakum was built in 1970, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Texas median of 1992. That is older than the Lavaca County median of 1977.1 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 Yoakum are older than rentals: a median build year of 1960 against 1980.1 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 Yoakum is mostly detached single-family: 75% of units, with 7% 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. Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Yoakum, with 54% of occupied homes owner-occupied, below the Texas share of 63%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Yoakum is valued at $151,100 (ACS), below the Texas median of $283,800. Within Lavaca County the median is $228,300, so Yoakum 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 Hallettsville 2 N station averages 13 nights a year at or below 32°F - a short freeze season.2,3 Heat is the governing season: about 117 days a year reach 90°F and 13 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. Rainfall is substantial: about 40 inches a year, 13 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.
Measurable snow is rare (about 0.1 inches a year).2,3 Cooling dominates the year: about 3,587 cooling degree days against 1,112 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. The coast is about 78 miles away, so storm systems arrive without salt air.4,5
Yoakum sits in IECC climate zone 2A (Hot-Humid).6 Building permits in Yoakum are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
