Rain on the outside
59.4 inches of rain a year is hard on exterior finishes, which need repainting or replacing on a schedule. Shutters inside the window stay dry.
Multi-unit buildings
32% of homes are in multi-unit buildings, whose outside walls aren't the owner's to change. Interior shutters are the option there.
Sun on the outside
With 62 days at 90°F or more, functional exterior shutters that close over the glass can keep sun off it. Decorative ones that don't close only frame the window.
