What drying runs into in Hopkinsville
Serving Hopkinsville and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Roughly 9,631 of Hopkinsville's 14,279 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1976; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1976 with two thirds of the stock older, the properties on the edge of town carry dark-fired tobacco barns, timber structures with gapped siding designed to let air pass freely through the crop inside.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 79.1 degrees against 35.5; the 51.76 inches a year peak in May at 5.38, both figures recorded at HOPKINSVILLE, 2.7 miles away. May is the wettest month at 5.38 inches of a 52-inch year and three months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in late spring; a building designed to be open to the air is open to that as well.
How water losses tend to end in Hopkinsville
- A structure built to be ventilated, so it is not weathertight by design
- Timber sitting on stone or block piers, so the sills are close to wet ground
- A building whose value is agricultural, so it is maintained to a different standard than a house
