Census and NOAA figures for the city of Nashville in Davidson County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Nashville was built in 1987, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and about the same as the Tennessee median of 1987.1 Nashville's housing is newer than the national mix: 41% of units predate 1980 against 50% nationally, and 22% date from 2010 or later.1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Owner-occupied and rented homes in Nashville are of similar age: median build years 1985 and 1987.1
Nashville has a mixed housing stock: 49% detached houses, 9% attached or townhouse units and 34% in buildings of five or more units.1 Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Nashville, with 52% of occupied homes owner-occupied (67% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Nashville is valued at $413,600 (ACS), above the Tennessee median of $286,700.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.
The Nashville Intl Ap station averages 66 nights a year at or below 32°F and 14 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 54 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 51 inches a year, 14 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 3,364 heating and 1,873 cooling degree days a year (base 65°F).2,3 Nashville sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Mixed-Humid).4
