The windows in Palm Desert's homes
By age, 1% of Palm Desert's homes went up before 1950, 32% between 1950 and 1979, 49% between 1980 and 1999 and 18% in 2000 or later.
Half of them are older than 1985, which is the age of window you're most likely measuring here.
In Indio, 7 miles away, 25% of homes are built before 1980, 8 points fewer than here.

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 Palm Desert home has
The most common home in Palm Desert is a two-bedroom (43% of homes), and the most common kind is a detached house. Nationally, the middle detached house has 10 to 15 windows.
11% of homes have four bedrooms or more and 11% one or none, so most orders sit near the middle of that range. Large homes are less common here than in 91% of the 881 US cities we have figures for. In Indio, 7 miles away, 26% of homes have four bedrooms or more, more than here.

Where our shutters fit
Every Shutter Boys shutter is made from solid American poplar to the measurements you take, then shipped to Palm Desert for you to fit. You choose the mount for each window in the designer, and we check the depth against the louver you pick.
The designer shows the price of each window as you add it, in US dollars.
