What drying runs into in East Highland Park

Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in East Highland Park were built and the answer is 1977 at the median, 64.5 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1977 with nearly two thirds of the stock older, the subdivision was laid out either side of a power line corridor, so a strip at the rear of a good many lots is easement rather than garden.
Climate & seasonal risk
August brings 4.9 of the 45.5 inches East Highland Park sees in a normal year, and July averages 79.4 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at RICHMOND INTL AP, 6.2 miles away. August is the wettest month at 4.9 inches of a 45.5-inch year and two months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain arrives in late summer; a cleared corridor kept free of planting sheds that rather than absorbing it.
How water losses tend to end in East Highland Park
- A cleared strip behind the houses, so the ground there has no cover to slow runoff
- Restrictions on what may be done in it, so drainage work stops at the easement line
- Access taken by the utility, so vehicles and works cross the strip periodically
