Census and NOAA figures for the city of College Park in Prince George's County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of College Park was built in 1981, about the same as the U.S. median of 1980 and about the same as the Maryland median of 1979.1 About 49% of College Park's housing units were built before 1980, close to the national share, and 22% since 2010.1 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 College Park are older than rentals: a median build year of 1956 against 2000.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.
College Park has a mixed housing stock: 42% detached houses, 3% attached or townhouse units and 53% in buildings of five or more units.1 Renters are the clear majority in College Park: only 34% of occupied homes are owner-occupied (68% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in College Park is valued at $437,900 (ACS), close to the Maryland median of $419,900.1 The Washington Reagan Ap station averages 60 nights a year at or below 32°F and 10 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles.
Summers bring about 40 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Rainfall is substantial: about 42 inches a year, 10 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 14 inches a year.2,3
Heating dominates the year: about 3,769 heating degree days against 1,738 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. College Park is about 25 miles from the ocean or Gulf coast in a straight line.4,5 Proximity to salt air makes fastener grade and corrosion protection part of every exterior quote.
College Park sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).6 Building permits in College Park are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
