Census and NOAA figures for the city of Caldwell in Canyon County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Caldwell was built in 2003, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Idaho median of 1991.1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Most of Caldwell's housing is recent: only 29% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 32% were built since 2010.1 Owner-occupied homes in Caldwell are newer than rentals: a median build year of 2005 against 1994.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.
Housing in Caldwell is mostly detached single-family: 79% of units, with 6% 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. 73% of occupied homes in Caldwell are owner-occupied (72% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Caldwell is valued at $367,300 (ACS), below the Idaho median of $418,600.1 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 Boise Air Terminal station averages 108 nights a year at or below 32°F and 23 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 55 days a year at 90°F or more and 9 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 12 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants. Snowfall averages about 18 inches a year.2,3 Heating dominates the year: about 5,320 heating degree days against 1,045 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.
Caldwell sits in IECC climate zone 5B (Cold).4 Building permits in Caldwell are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
