Census and NOAA figures for the city of Richmond Heights in Cuyahoga County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Richmond Heights was built in 1967, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Ohio median of 1970. That is newer than the Cuyahoga County median of 1957.1 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: 77% of Richmond Heights's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 6% since 2010. The largest single share, 47%, dates from 1960-1979. That makes it much the same age as Cuyahoga County as a whole (80% 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 Richmond Heights are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1969 against 1965.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components. Richmond Heights has a mixed housing stock: 58% detached houses, 4% attached or townhouse units and 37% in buildings of five or more units.1 66% of occupied homes in Richmond Heights are owner-occupied, in line with the Ohio share of 67%.1
The median owner-occupied home in Richmond Heights is valued at $208,800 (ACS), close to the Ohio median of $214,800. Within Cuyahoga County the median is $195,400, so Richmond Heights sits above it.1 The Cleveland Burke Ap station averages 92 nights a year at or below 32°F and 29 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Hot days are uncommon: about 9 days a year reach 90°F.2,3
Annual precipitation is about 33 inches, with 5 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3 Heating dominates the year: about 5,513 heating degree days against 925 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. Richmond Heights is about 3 miles from the Great Lakes shoreline (fresh water).4,5 Lake-effect weather adds wind-driven rain and snow to the exterior details that matter.
Richmond Heights sits in IECC climate zone 5A (Cold).6 Building permits in Richmond Heights are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
