Census and NOAA figures for the city of Seaford in Sussex County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Seaford was built in 1977, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Delaware median of 1987.1 Somewhat more of Seaford's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 54% against 50%, with 19% built since 2010.1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Seaford has a mixed housing stock: 58% detached houses, 7% attached or townhouse units and 22% in buildings of five or more units.1
Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Seaford, with 50% of occupied homes owner-occupied (73% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Seaford is valued at $224,300 (ACS), below the Delaware median of $352,000.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible. The Georgetown Sussex Co Ap station averages 83 nights a year at or below 32°F and 15 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles.
Summers bring about 30 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Rainfall is substantial: about 44 inches a year, 11 days of it an inch or more.2,3 Heavy rainfall makes flashing, drainage and ventilation details the difference between a sound assembly and a wet one. Heating dominates the year: about 4,070 heating degree days against 1,396 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.
Seaford is about 24 miles from the ocean or Gulf coast in a straight line.4,5 Proximity to salt air makes fastener grade and corrosion protection part of every exterior quote. Building permits in Seaford are normally issued by the city building department.4
