Census and NOAA figures for the city of New Carrollton in Prince George's County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of New Carrollton was built in 1964, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Maryland median of 1979. That is older than the Prince George's County median of 1977.1 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: 85% of New Carrollton's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 1% since 2010. The largest single share, 56%, dates from 1960-1979. That makes it a newer stock than Prince George's County as a whole (54% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 1960s and 1970s, the routine checks are aluminum branch wiring, galvanized supply lines and original single-pane windows.
Owner-occupied homes in New Carrollton are older than rentals: a median build year of 1963 against 1967.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap. New Carrollton has a mixed housing stock: 48% detached houses, 1% attached or townhouse units and 43% in buildings of five or more units.1 Owners and renters are roughly balanced in New Carrollton, with 54% of occupied homes owner-occupied, below the Maryland share of 68%.1
The median owner-occupied home in New Carrollton is valued at $394,900 (ACS), close to the Maryland median of $419,900. Within Prince George's County the median is $426,000, so New Carrollton sits below it.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.
New Carrollton is about 21 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. New Carrollton sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).6 Building permits in New Carrollton are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
