Census and NOAA figures for the city of Paducah in McCracken County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Paducah was built in 1967, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Kentucky median of 1982.1 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: 68% of Paducah's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 8% since 2010.1 Owner-occupied homes in Paducah are older than rentals: a median build year of 1963 against 1974.1 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 Paducah is mostly detached single-family: 62% of units, with 19% 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. 55% of occupied homes in Paducah are owner-occupied (68% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Paducah is valued at $165,300 (ACS), below the Kentucky median of $205,600.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.
The Paducah station averages 83 nights a year at or below 32°F and 20 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 50 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.
Rainfall is substantial: about 50 inches a year, 14 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. Snowfall averages about 9 inches a year.2,3 Heating dominates the year: about 3,925 heating degree days against 1,683 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.
Paducah sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Paducah are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
