Census and NOAA figures for the city of Rifle in Garfield County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Rifle was built in 1991, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Colorado median of 1988. That is in line with the Garfield County median of 1993.1 Most of Rifle's housing is recent: only 32% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 9% were built since 2010. The largest single share, 36%, dates from 1980-1999. That makes it a newer stock than Garfield County as a whole (28% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 1980s and 1990s, polybutylene supply lines, builder-grade windows and first-generation openers are the usual items a contractor confirms before quoting. Owner-occupied homes in Rifle are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1995 against 1980.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.
Rifle has a mixed housing stock: 58% detached houses, 10% attached or townhouse units and 14% in buildings of five or more units.1 66% of occupied homes in Rifle are owner-occupied, in line with the Colorado share of 66%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Rifle is valued at $413,500 (ACS), below the Colorado median of $539,400. Within Garfield County the median is $527,800, so Rifle sits below it.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.
Winters are long: the Rifle Garfield Co Ap station averages 173 nights a year at or below 32°F and 74 at or below 20°F.2,3 Long winters put freeze-thaw, ice dams and snow load at the center of roofing and masonry decisions. Summers run hot, with about 54 days a year at 90°F or more and 3 at 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.
The climate is arid: annual precipitation is only about 11 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants. Heating dominates the year: about 6,398 heating degree days against 631 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.
Rifle sits in IECC climate zone 5B (Cold).4 Building permits in Rifle are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
