Census and NOAA figures for the community of Red Chute in Bossier Parish, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the community of Red Chute was built in 1993, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Louisiana median of 1983. That is in line with the Bossier Parish median of 1991.1 Most of Red Chute's housing is recent: only 28% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 19% were built since 2010. The largest single share, 30%, dates from 1980-1999. That makes it an older stock than Bossier Parish as a whole (36% built before 1980).1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Owner-occupied homes in Red Chute are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1993 against 1985.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.
Housing in Red Chute is mostly detached single-family: 79% of units, with 1% in buildings of five or more units. Mobile and manufactured homes are 20% of units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. Home ownership is the norm in Red Chute: 87% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, above the Louisiana share of 67%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Red Chute is valued at $219,100 (ACS), close to the Louisiana median of $216,500. Within Bossier Parish the median is $227,200, so Red Chute sits close to it.1

Rainfall is substantial: about 49 inches a year, 15 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.
