Census and NOAA figures for the city of Poquoson in Poquoson city, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Poquoson was built in 1977, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Virginia median of 1984. That is in line with the Poquoson city median of 1977.1 Somewhat more of Poquoson's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 57% against 50%, with 6% built since 2010. The largest single share, 33%, dates from 1960-1979. That makes it much the same age as Poquoson city as a whole (57% 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 Poquoson are older than rentals: a median build year of 1977 against 1982.1 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 Poquoson is mostly detached single-family: 88% of units, with 2% 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 Poquoson: 85% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, above the Virginia share of 67%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Poquoson is valued at $400,300 (ACS), close to the Virginia median of $383,700. Within Poquoson city the median is $400,300, so Poquoson sits close to it.1
