What drying runs into in Lafayette

Local housing stock
68.6 percent of Lafayette's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1971, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1971 with nearly seven in ten houses older, a good part of the city sits on the broad river bottom rather than on the bluffs, on ground the river laid down in alternating layers.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 73.6 degrees against 25.8; the 41.65 inches a year peak in June at 4.97, rain recorded at LAFAYETTE 2.2 S 1.4 miles away and temperatures at LAFAYETTE PURDUE UNIV AP 4 miles away. June is the wettest month at 4.97 inches of a 42-inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in early summer; layered ground carries that sideways along the sandier bands.
How water losses tend to end in Lafayette
- Alternating layers of sand and silt, so water travels along some and not others
- A water table tied to the river, so it responds to the river rather than the rain
- Ground that varies within a single lot, so one corner behaves differently from another
