Census and NOAA figures for the city of Socorro in El Paso County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Socorro was built in 2000, 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 Socorro's housing is recent: only 18% of units predate 1980 (U.S. 50%) and 27% were built since 2010.1 Owner-occupied and rented homes in Socorro are of similar age: median build years 2000 and 2002.1
Housing in Socorro is mostly detached single-family: 74% of units, with 2% 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. Home ownership is the norm in Socorro: 82% of occupied homes are owner-occupied (63% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Socorro is valued at $144,500 (ACS), below the Texas median of $283,800.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.
The El Paso Intl Ap station averages 42 nights a year at or below 32°F and 2 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Heat is the governing season: about 117 days a year reach 90°F and 26 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.
The climate is arid: annual precipitation is only about 9 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants. Cooling dominates the year: about 2,662 cooling degree days against 2,206 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.
Socorro sits in IECC climate zone 3B (Hot-Dry).4 Building permits in Socorro are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
