Local housing stock
69.4 percent of Springfield's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1975, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1975 with about seven in ten houses older, a good share of the houses sit on a pier-and-beam crawl where the masonry piers were set on the ground rather than on poured footings, so each one is bearing on soil that moves.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 46.51 inches, 6.05 of them in May, against a warm season that peaks at 78.1 degrees in July; both figures recorded at SPRINGFIELD WBO, 0.6 miles away. May is the wettest month at over six inches of a forty-seven inch year with three months averaging a low below freezing, so the ground under the crawl goes through a large seasonal swing; piers bearing directly on that soil move with it, some more than others.
How water losses tend to end in Springfield
- Piers bearing on soil rather than on footings, so each one settles at its own rate
- A floor structure that racks as they move, so joints open and the framing loses its bearing
- Movement and water arriving together, so the damage is structural and the water is what reveals it
