Census and NOAA figures for the city of Davis in Yolo County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Davis was built in 1983, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the California median of 1976.1 Davis's housing is newer than the national mix: 45% of units predate 1980 against 50% nationally, and 7% date from 2010 or later.1 Owner-occupied and rented homes in Davis are of similar age: median build years 1981 and 1984.1 Davis has a mixed housing stock: 44% detached houses, 11% attached or townhouse units and 32% in buildings of five or more units.1
Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Davis, with 44% of occupied homes owner-occupied (56% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Davis is valued at $866,100 (ACS), above the California median of $734,700.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have. The Sacramento Metro Ap station averages 23 nights a year at or below 32°F - a short freeze season.2,3
Summers are hot: about 84 days a year reach 90°F and 15 reach 100°F.2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies. Annual precipitation is low, about 18 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants.
Heating dominates the year: about 2,644 heating degree days against 1,278 cooling degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a heating-led climate, insulation and air sealing carry most of the energy-code weight for any work that opens the envelope. The coast is about 65 miles away, so storm systems arrive without salt air.4,5 Davis sits in IECC climate zone 3B (Hot-Dry).6
Building permits in Davis are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
