Sun and homes in Johnson City

From June to September, Johnson City's average highs reach 80°F or more, and about 17 days a year reach 90°F. That's fewer hot days than 74% of the 881 US cities we have climate figures for.

14% of homes date from before 1950, 27% from 2000 or later, and owners live in 51% of them.

Kingsport, 15 miles away, has 28 days a year at 90°F or more, more than Johnson City's 17.

Cold winters

A stain sinks into the wood instead of forming a layer on top, so a stained shutter moves with the seasons just as a painted one does. Keep winter humidity reasonable and both finishes stay sound.
