The windows in Queen Creek's homes
By age, 0% of Queen Creek's homes went up before 1950, 3% between 1950 and 1979, 6% between 1980 and 1999 and 91% in 2000 or later.
Half of them are older than 2012, which is the age of window you're most likely measuring here.
In San Tan Valley, 6 miles away, the share of built before 1980 is much the same as here (2%).

Cranks, handles and shallow frames
In the 91% of homes built in 2000 or later, windows are often set close to the room side of the wall, with crank or lever handles. Measure from the glass, or the handle if it sticks out further, to the face of the trim: that depth decides whether you mount inside, outside or on a frame.
Sun almost overhead in summer
At midday in June the sun stands 80° high here, nearly overhead, so south windows take little direct sun at noon; east and west windows take the most, early and late. Choose louver sizes for those first.
Inside or outside the opening
An inside mount sits within the window opening and looks built in, but it needs enough depth for the louvers to tilt. An outside mount fixes to the wall or casing around the window, which suits shallow openings and hides uneven edges. The designer asks which you want for each window.
How many windows a Queen Creek home has
The most common home in Queen Creek is a four-bedroom (56% of homes), and the most common kind is a detached house. Nationally, the middle detached house has 10 to 15 windows.
With 56% of homes at four bedrooms or more, many orders here run past 15 windows once bedrooms, bathrooms and a patio door are counted. Large homes are more common here than in any other of the 881 US cities we have figures for. In San Tan Valley, 6 miles away, 53% of homes have four bedrooms or more, fewer than here.
