Renters are the clear majority in LaGrange: only 40% of occupied homes are owner-occupied (66% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in LaGrange is valued at $216,300 (ACS), below the Georgia median of $303,300.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible. The W Pt station averages 56 nights a year at or below 32°F and 5 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles.

Summers run hot, with about 57 days a year at 90°F or more and 1 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. Annual precipitation is about 53 inches, with 16 days a year of 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 and cooling loads are both real: about 2,773 heating and 1,767 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).2,3 LaGrange sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in LaGrange are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
