Census and NOAA figures for the city of Walla Walla in Walla Walla County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Walla Walla was built in 1967, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Washington median of 1985.1 Older housing stock means a contractor's first job is finding what is behind the finish - wiring, plumbing and roof decking - before a price is final. The stock is old by national standards: 68% of Walla Walla's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 9% since 2010.1 Pre-1940 houses often have unlined chimneys, plaster walls and balloon framing, which change the scope of almost every trade.
Owner-occupied homes in Walla Walla are older than rentals: a median build year of 1964 against 1971.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap. Housing in Walla Walla is mostly detached single-family: 63% of units, with 21% 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.
57% of occupied homes in Walla Walla are owner-occupied (64% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Walla Walla is valued at $393,600 (ACS), below the Washington median of $564,600.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible. The Walla Walla Rgnl Ap station averages 70 nights a year at or below 32°F and 11 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 42 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is low, about 19 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants. Heating dominates the year: about 4,798 heating degree days against 936 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.
Walla Walla sits in IECC climate zone 5B (Cold).4 Building permits in Walla Walla are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
