Local housing stock
88.9 percent of Wheeling's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1949, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1949 with nearly nine in ten houses older, one of the residential districts occupies an island in the Ohio, a full neighborhood of streets and houses with water on either hand.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 41.88 inches, 4.26 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 74.4 degrees in July; both figures recorded at WHEELING, 2.1 miles away. June is the wettest month at 4.26 inches of a 42-inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the rain here is unremarkable; what matters to the island is the level of a river fed by a basin far larger than this county.
How water losses tend to end in Wheeling
- Ground surrounded by water, so a rise arrives from every direction at once
- One or two bridges as the only access, so a rise cuts the neighborhood off before it floods it
- A whole district in the same situation, so there is no unaffected ground nearby to work from
