Census and NOAA figures for the city of Taunton in Bristol County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Taunton was built in 1965, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and about the same as the Massachusetts median of 1964.1 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. Somewhat more of Taunton's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 64% against 50%, with 3% built since 2010.1 Pre-1940 houses often have unlined chimneys, plaster walls and balloon framing, which change the scope of almost every trade.
Owner-occupied homes in Taunton are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1976 against 1946.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components. Taunton has a mixed housing stock: 45% detached houses, 7% attached or townhouse units and 16% in buildings of five or more units.1 62% of occupied homes in Taunton are owner-occupied (62% statewide).1
The median owner-occupied home in Taunton is valued at $422,800 (ACS), below the Massachusetts median of $562,100.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible. Winters are long: the Taunton Muni Ap station averages 133 nights a year at or below 32°F and 47 at or below 20°F.2,3 Long winters put freeze-thaw, ice dams and snow load at the center of roofing and masonry decisions.
Summer heat is moderate: about 14 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Rainfall is substantial: about 48 inches a year, 13 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. Heating dominates the year: about 5,898 heating degree days against 632 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.
Taunton 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.
