Census and NOAA figures for the city of College Place in Walla Walla County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of College Place was built in 1982, about the same as the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Washington median of 1985. That is newer than the Walla Walla County median of 1973.1 About 47% of College Place's housing units were built before 1980, close to the national share, and 15% since 2010. The largest single share, 28%, dates from 1960-1979. That makes it an older stock than Walla Walla County as a whole (60% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 1960s and 1970s, the routine checks are aluminum branch wiring, galvanized supply lines and original single-pane windows. Owner-occupied homes in College Place are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1988 against 1979.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.
College Place has a mixed housing stock: 58% detached houses, 2% attached or townhouse units and 13% in buildings of five or more units. Mobile and manufactured homes are 10% of units.1 Manufactured homes take different roofing, skirting, anchoring and addition details from site-built houses, so say which kind of home it is when you call. 64% of occupied homes in College Place are owner-occupied, in line with the Washington share of 64%.1 The median owner-occupied home in College Place is valued at $366,600 (ACS), below the Washington median of $564,600. Within Walla Walla County the median is $408,900, so College Place 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 Walla Walla Rgnl Ap station averages 70 nights a year at or below 32°F and 11 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summers bring about 42 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is low, about 19 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants.
Heating dominates the year: about 4,798 heating degree days against 936 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. College Place sits in IECC climate zone 5B (Cold).4 Building permits in College Place are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
