Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Fairfax Station were built and the answer is 1982 at the median, 85.2 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1982 with over eight in ten predating 1990, these are houses on large wooded lots set well back from the road, reached by private drives surfaced in gravel and graded by whoever last had a load delivered.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 75.2 degrees against 32.9; the 47.11 inches a year peak in June at 4.9, rain recorded at WOODBRIDGE 5.9 NW 6.6 miles away and temperatures at VIENNA 7.2 miles away. June is the wettest month at 4.9 inches of a 47.11-inch year and four months average lows below freezing, so the drive takes summer storms and a winter of freeze and thaw; both work the surface into ruts, and a rut is a channel pointed wherever it happens to run.
How water losses tend to end in Fairfax Station
- A long collecting surface with no drainage system at the end of it
- Ruts forming and reforming, so where the water goes changes from season to season
- A drive that frequently falls toward the house, since the house sits at the low end of the lot
