The windows in Sanford's homes
By age, 7% of Sanford's homes went up before 1950, 22% between 1950 and 1979, 29% between 1980 and 1999 and 42% in 2000 or later.
Half of them are older than 1994, which is the age of window you're most likely measuring here.
In Deltona, 9 miles away, 21% of homes are built before 1980, 8 points fewer than here.

Sun almost overhead in summer
At midday in June the sun stands 85° 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.
Cranks, handles and shallow frames
In the 42% 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.
Wide windows split into sections
36% of homes are apartments or condos, where windows are often wide. A wide opening is split into several panels joined by T-posts at the window's own mullions, so the shutter lines up with the glass behind it.
