Census and NOAA figures for the city of Rockville in Montgomery County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Rockville was built in 1979, about the same as the U.S. median of 1980 and about the same as the Maryland median of 1979.1 About 51% of Rockville's housing units were built before 1980, close to the national share, and 15% since 2010.1 Owner-occupied homes in Rockville are older than rentals: a median build year of 1971 against 1999.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.
Rockville has a mixed housing stock: 41% detached houses, 14% attached or townhouse units and 43% in buildings of five or more units.1 Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Rockville, with 53% of occupied homes owner-occupied (68% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Rockville is valued at $682,300 (ACS), above the Maryland median of $419,900.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.
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. Rockville is about 31 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.
