What drying runs into in Allentown
Serving Allentown and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Roughly 171 of Allentown's 192 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1975; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1975 with nearly nine in ten houses older, the community sits in the belt where kaolin is mined, so the ground beneath the sandy topsoil is a dense white clay rather than ordinary subsoil.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 48.19 inches, 4.89 of them in February, against a warm season that peaks at 81.9 degrees in July; rain recorded at DANVILLE 3.3 W 4.4 miles away and temperatures at IRWINTON 4 WNW 16.9 miles away. February is the wettest month at 4.89 inches of a 48-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the heaviest rain lands in winter when nothing is growing; sand above a clay seal fills quickly and then holds.
How water losses tend to end in Allentown
- A clay layer at shallow depth, so water perches within a couple of feet of the surface
- Sandy soil above it, so the ground appears free-draining until the layer is reached
- Very little fall across the country, so the perched water has nowhere to travel to
