Census and NOAA figures for the city of Roswell in Chaves County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Roswell was built in 1968, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the New Mexico median of 1985.1 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: 69% of Roswell's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 5% since 2010.1 Owner-occupied homes in Roswell are older than rentals: a median build year of 1965 against 1974.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.
Housing in Roswell is mostly detached single-family: 75% of units, with 8% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. 69% of occupied homes in Roswell are owner-occupied (70% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Roswell is valued at $152,600 (ACS), below the New Mexico median of $248,100.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.
The Roswell Ind Air Pk station averages 87 nights a year at or below 32°F and 16 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Heat is the governing season: about 110 days a year reach 90°F and 26 reach 100°F.2,3 A long hot season shortens the life of roofing, sealants and garage-door electronics, and it shapes what a contractor specifies.
The climate is arid: annual precipitation is only about 12 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants. Heating and cooling loads are both real: about 2,876 heating and 2,236 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).2,3 Roswell sits in IECC climate zone 3B (Hot-Dry).4
Building permits in Roswell are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
