Census and NOAA figures for the city of Travelers Rest in Greenville County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Travelers Rest was built in 1994, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and about the same as the South Carolina median of 1992. That is in line with the Greenville County median of 1992.1 Travelers Rest's housing is newer than the national mix: 35% of units predate 1980 against 50% nationally, and 13% date from 2010 or later. The largest single share, 27%, dates from 1980-1999. That makes it much the same age as Greenville County as a whole (35% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 1980s and 1990s, polybutylene supply lines, builder-grade windows and first-generation openers are the usual items a contractor confirms before quoting. Owner-occupied and rented homes in Travelers Rest are of similar age: median build years 1994 and 1993.1
Housing in Travelers Rest is mostly detached single-family: 67% of units, with 25% 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. 60% of occupied homes in Travelers Rest are owner-occupied, below the South Carolina share of 72%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Travelers Rest is valued at $284,800 (ACS), above the South Carolina median of $259,000. Within Greenville County the median is $299,000, so Travelers Rest sits close to it.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 Greenville Dwtn Ap station averages 44 nights a year at or below 32°F and 4 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summers run hot, with about 52 days a year at 90°F or more and 1 at 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.
Rainfall is substantial: about 47 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 and cooling loads are both real: about 2,646 heating and 2,035 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).2,3 Travelers Rest sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Mixed-Humid).4
