Census and NOAA figures for the city of Dickson in Dickson County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Dickson was built in 1980, about the same as the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Tennessee median of 1987. That is older than the Dickson County median of 1988.1 About 51% of Dickson's housing units were built before 1980, close to the national share, and 8% since 2010. The largest single share, 29%, dates from 1960-1979. That makes it a newer stock than Dickson County as a whole (37% 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 and rented homes in Dickson are of similar age: median build years 1982 and 1979.1
Housing in Dickson is mostly detached single-family: 74% of units, with 15% 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. 62% of occupied homes in Dickson are owner-occupied, below the Tennessee share of 67%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Dickson is valued at $292,600 (ACS), close to the Tennessee median of $286,700. Within Dickson County the median is $306,400, so Dickson sits close to it.1
The Dickson station averages 84 nights a year at or below 32°F and 23 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summers bring about 26 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is about 54 inches, with 16 days a year of 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 dominates the year: about 3,826 heating degree days against 1,327 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. Dickson sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Dickson are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
