The median home in the city of McKinney was built in 2007, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Texas median of 1992.1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Most of McKinney's housing is recent: only 8% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 40% were built since 2010.1 Owner-occupied and rented homes in McKinney are of similar age: median build years 2007 and 2008.1

Housing in McKinney is mostly detached single-family: 70% of units, with 23% 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. 64% of occupied homes in McKinney are owner-occupied (63% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in McKinney is valued at $471,800 (ACS), above the Texas median of $283,800.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.

The Mckinney Muni Ap station averages 48 nights a year at or below 32°F and 5 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summers are hot: about 97 days a year reach 90°F and 17 reach 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.

Annual precipitation is about 38 inches, with 12 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3 Measurable snow is rare (about 2.6 inches a year).2,3 Cooling dominates the year: about 2,531 cooling degree days against 2,498 heating degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a cooling-led climate, attic ventilation, duct sealing and window solar gain are where the energy code concentrates.

McKinney sits in IECC climate zone 3A (Hot-Humid).4 Building permits in McKinney are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
