Serving Phenix City and the surrounding area, including Kid Alley Residential Historic District, Smith Residential Historic District, Snow Valley Residential Historic District, Martin Luther King JR Boulevard / Havenbrook Court, Upper Twentieth Street Residential Historic District.

Local housing stock

Only 44.4 percent of Phenix City's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1984 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1984 with just over half the stock older, the riverfront neighborhoods sit along a stretch where old mill dams were removed, which lowered the pool they had held for a century.

Climate & seasonal risk

No month in Phenix City has a normal low below freezing, and January is the coolest at 38.2 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in March at 5.85 inches of an annual 54.41; rain recorded at PHENIX CITY 2.2 NNW 2.8 miles away and temperatures at COLUMBUS METRO AP 6.7 miles away. March is the wettest month at 5.85 inches of a 54-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the heaviest rain lands in early spring; a channel that has been re-cutting itself since the dams went meets that differently each year.

How water losses tend to end in Phenix City

  • A river level that dropped, so the ground water alongside it fell as well
  • Banks re-cutting to a new level, so the channel is still adjusting years afterward
  • Wells and footings referenced to the old level, so what was designed for it no longer applies
