The windows in Blue Springs's homes
By age, 2% of Blue Springs's homes went up before 1950, 36% between 1950 and 1979, 38% between 1980 and 1999 and 23% in 2000 or later.
Half of them are older than 1986, which is the age of window you're most likely measuring here.

Low winter sun through south windows
In December the midday sun is only 28° above the horizon here, so it reaches deep into rooms through south-facing windows. Louvers tilted with the room-side edge up send that light toward the ceiling instead of across a screen or a sofa.
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 Blue Springs home has
The most common home in Blue Springs is a three-bedroom (46% of homes), and the most common kind is a detached house. Nationally, the middle detached house has 10 to 15 windows.
27% of homes have four bedrooms or more and 5% one or none, so most orders sit near the middle of that range. Large homes are more common here than in 70% of the 881 US cities we have figures for. In Independence, 7 miles away, 16% of homes have four bedrooms or more, fewer than here.

Where our shutters fit
Every Shutter Boys shutter is made from solid American poplar to the measurements you take, then shipped to Blue Springs 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.
