What drying runs into in Bartlett
Serving Bartlett and the surrounding area, including Schick, Wayne Center.
Local housing stock
The typical Bartlett house dates to 1992, with a little under half of the stock (43 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1990s work. With a median of 1992 and under half the stock older, the developments went onto working farmland whose low spots held ponds for stock, and those hollows were filled and graded rather than left as open space.
Climate & seasonal risk
5 months in Bartlett have normal lows below freezing, January the coldest at 13.7 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in May at 4.8 inches of an annual 40.11; rain recorded at CAROL STREAM 0.3 SSE 4.1 miles away and temperatures at STREAMWOOD 4.5 miles away. May is the wettest month at 4.8 inches of a 40-inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain arrives in spring; a filled hollow is the lowest ground in a subdivision whatever the surface now looks like.
How water losses tend to end in Bartlett
- Soft organic material under the fill, so the ground compresses where the pond was
- A low point that still collects underground, so water gathers where it always did
- No record of the location, so the affected houses are identified from where they settle
