What drying runs into in Berwyn
Serving Berwyn and the surrounding area, including Lavergne.
Local housing stock
Only 4.4 percent of Berwyn's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1938 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1938 with nearly 96 percent of the stock older, the streets were planted with a continuous line of trees in the strip between the sidewalk and the curb, and those trees are now very large.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Berwyn gets 40.07 inches a year with May heaviest at 4.67, and the drying season runs from a 26-degree January to a 76.3-degree July; rain recorded at BERWYN 0.9 NW 0.9 miles away and temperatures at CHICAGO MIDWAY AP 4.4 miles away. May is the wettest month at 4.67 inches of a 40-inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in spring; roots that have spent decades looking for water are in every service trench on the street.
How water losses tend to end in Berwyn
- Roots in the parkway where the services run, so the lines and the trees share the same ground
- Sidewalks and curbs lifted, so the fall across the frontage has been altered
- City trees, so the householder cannot deal with the cause directly
