Census and NOAA figures for the city of Kenmore in King County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Kenmore was built in 1985, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and about the same as the Washington median of 1985. That is in line with the King County median of 1983.1 Kenmore's housing is newer than the national mix: 40% of units predate 1980 against 50% nationally, and 14% date from 2010 or later. The largest single share, 34%, dates from 1980-1999. That makes it an older stock than King County as a whole (46% 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 Kenmore are of similar age: median build years 1985 and 1985.1
Housing in Kenmore is mostly detached single-family: 63% of units, with 26% 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. 69% of occupied homes in Kenmore are owner-occupied, above the Washington share of 64%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Kenmore is valued at $920,800 (ACS), above the Washington median of $564,600. Within King County the median is $859,900, so Kenmore sits above 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 Seattle Sand Pt Wsfo station averages 25 nights a year at or below 32°F - a short freeze season.2,3 Hot days are uncommon: about 2 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is about 38 inches, with 4 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3 Heating dominates the year: about 4,482 heating degree days against 211 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.
Kenmore is about 6 miles from the ocean or Gulf coast in a straight line.4,5 Proximity to salt air makes fastener grade and corrosion protection part of every exterior quote. Kenmore sits in IECC climate zone 4C (Marine).6 Building permits in Kenmore are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
