Anaheim homes and weather, for wood

In Anaheim, August averages a high of 88.8°F and December a low of 48.2°F, about 47 days a year reach 90°F, 0 nights fall at or below freezing, and 14.3 inches of precipitation falls in a typical year.

65% of homes were built before 1980 and 14% in 2000 or later; 41% are detached houses.

In Yorba Linda, 2 miles away, 39% of homes are built before 1980, 26 points fewer than here.

Older, out-of-square openings

In a city where 65% of homes are decades old, openings are rarely perfectly square. Wood can be lightly sanded to fit at install; vinyl and most coated composites can't.

How to measure

Wood in Anaheim's homes

65% of Anaheim's homes were built before 1980, and the median home dates from 1973. In a town of older houses, wood trim and casings are the norm, and painted poplar matches them.

The median home is valued at $831,200 by its owners. That is higher than in 90% of the 881 US cities we have figures for. In Yorba Linda, 2 miles away, the median is $1,147,100, higher than here.
