What drying runs into in North Charleston

Local housing stock
Roughly 23,946 of North Charleston's 54,781 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1996; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. With a median build year of 1996 and well over half the stock newer than 1990, a large share of the housing is attached townhome built with a pair of independent framed walls and a narrow cavity between them, so water entering that gap is in a space that neither neighbor can open from their own side without the other's agreement.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, North Charleston gets 53.56 inches a year with August heaviest at 7.29, and the drying season runs from a 49.5-degree January to a 82.5-degree July; rain recorded at NORTH CHARLESTON 2.6 NW 1.1 miles away and temperatures at CHARLESTON INTL AP 2 miles away. August is the wettest month at over seven inches and no month averages a freezing low, so the building is closed and cooled through the wettest part of the year and a sealed cavity between two units has neither ventilation nor a dry season working on it.
How water losses tend to end in North Charleston
- Paired framed walls with a sealed gap between units, so water in that cavity is reachable only by opening one side or the other
- Two households and two policies on either side of one wet cavity, so access rather than drying decides the schedule
- Stacked plans over a shared slab, so a loss on an upper floor of one unit reaches the ground floor of the next
