Census and NOAA figures for the community of Gresham Park in DeKalb County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the community of Gresham Park was built in 1967, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Georgia median of 1992. That is older than the DeKalb County median of 1984.1 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: 71% of Gresham Park's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 7% since 2010. The largest single share, 35%, dates from 1940-1959. That makes it a newer stock than DeKalb County as a whole (44% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 1940s and 1950s, contractors routinely check for original cast-iron drains, two-wire electrical and undersized panels before pricing a remodel.
Owner-occupied homes in Gresham Park are older than rentals: a median build year of 1964 against 1973.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap. Housing in Gresham Park is mostly detached single-family: 74% of units, with 10% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units.
