Local housing stock
58.1 percent of Lincoln's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1982, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1982 with under six in ten predating 1990, this city has grown out over ground that includes the saline flats of the creek valleys, where the soil carries salts that ordinary prairie soil does not.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 30.94 inches, 5.19 of them in May, against a warm season that peaks at 78.1 degrees in July; rain recorded at LINCOLN 1.8 SE 2.6 miles away and temperatures at LINCOLN MUNI AP 4.7 miles away. May is the wettest month at 5.19 inches of a 30.94-inch year and five months average lows below freezing, so the ground wets in spring and then dries hard through the summer; every one of those cycles brings salts up toward the surface rather than washing them down.
How water losses tend to end in Lincoln
- Salts moving up through a slab or a foundation with the moisture that carries them
- Deposits left at the surface when the water evaporates, which lift whatever is bonded there
- Meters that keep reading high after drying, because salt in the material holds a charge
