Census and NOAA figures for the city of Santa Ana in Orange County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Santa Ana was built in 1969, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the California median of 1976.1 Older housing stock means a contractor's first job is finding what is behind the finish - wiring, plumbing and roof decking - before a price is final. The stock is old by national standards: 74% of Santa Ana's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 6% since 2010.1 Owner-occupied homes in Santa Ana are older than rentals: a median build year of 1963 against 1974.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.
Santa Ana has a mixed housing stock: 44% detached houses, 7% attached or townhouse units and 33% in buildings of five or more units.1 Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Santa Ana, with 45% of occupied homes owner-occupied (56% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Santa Ana is valued at $713,000 (ACS), close to the California median of $734,700.1 Santa Ana is about 9 miles from the ocean or Gulf coast in a straight line.2,3 Proximity to salt air makes fastener grade and corrosion protection part of every exterior quote.
