About homes in Casper

Census and NOAA figures for the city of Casper in Natrona County, not the metro, with a source for each.

The median home in the city of Casper was built in 1975, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Wyoming median of 1981.1 Somewhat more of Casper's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 60% against 50%, with 13% built since 2010.1 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. Owner-occupied homes in Casper are older than rentals: a median build year of 1974 against 1978.1 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 Casper is mostly detached single-family: 70% of units, with 18% 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. 70% of occupied homes in Casper are owner-occupied (72% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Casper is valued at $260,400 (ACS), below the Wyoming median of $309,700.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.

Winters are long: the Casper Natrona Co Ap station averages 183 nights a year at or below 32°F and 85 at or below 20°F.2,3 Long winters put freeze-thaw, ice dams and snow load at the center of roofing and masonry decisions. Summers bring about 38 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is low, about 12 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants.

Snowfall averages about 72 inches a year.2,3 Real snowfall means ice-and-water membrane, attic ventilation and roof load are standard parts of a roofing scope. Heating dominates the year: about 7,486 heating degree days against 443 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.

Casper sits in IECC climate zone 6B (Cold).4 Building permits in Casper are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
