Census and NOAA figures for the city of Lake Oswego in Clackamas County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Lake Oswego was built in 1982, about the same as the U.S. median of 1980 and about the same as the Oregon median of 1981.1 About 46% of Lake Oswego's housing units were built before 1980, close to the national share, and 10% since 2010.1 Owner-occupied and rented homes in Lake Oswego are of similar age: median build years 1981 and 1983.1 Housing in Lake Oswego is mostly detached single-family: 61% of units, with 24% 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 Lake Oswego are owner-occupied (63% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Lake Oswego is valued at $932,200 (ACS), above the Oregon median of $477,600.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have. The Aurora State Ap station averages 39 nights a year at or below 32°F - a short freeze season.2,3
Summer heat is moderate: about 18 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is about 40 inches, with 4 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3 Heating dominates the year: about 4,162 heating degree days against 455 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.
The coast is about 61 miles away, so storm systems arrive without salt air.4,5 Lake Oswego sits in IECC climate zone 4C (Marine).6 Building permits in Lake Oswego are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
