Most of West Fargo's housing is recent: only 19% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 34% were built since 2010.1 Owner-occupied and rented homes in West Fargo are of similar age: median build years 2003 and 2006.1

Summer heat is moderate: about 11 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is moderate, about 24 inches.2,3
Snowfall averages about 51 inches a year.2,3 Real snowfall means ice-and-water membrane, attic ventilation and roof load are standard parts of a roofing scope.
