Jefferson Township, measured.
111,928 residential parcels on the official record. Median home built 1927. Every figure below is computed from the county assessor's file, county roof permits, FEMA + First Street flood layers — aggregate only, and never a claim about any specific property.
The stock
What Jefferson's housing is made of.
95.6% of Jefferson's homes predate 1980. 88.4% carry asphalt-shingle roofs, 58.2% are masonry-walled (not a siding market), and 88.2% have a full or partial basement. 86.6% are owner-occupied.
Flood exposure: 22 homes sit in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, while 11,941 (10.7%) carry a First Street flood factor of 5+ — water risk beyond the mapped floodplain.
The 107,500–108,000 homes at 25+ years with no roof permit on file are where Jefferson's replacement cycle is furthest along — that cohort, minus fresh permits, is the campaign surface.
Re-roof waves
Jefferson's permit history has a shape.
Roof permits in Jefferson cluster into waves — the county file shows the biggest recent years to the right. Homes that didn't replace during a wave are aging on the same clock as the neighbors that did.
Campaign the non-replacers inside a past wave's footprint — demand that already proved itself once tends to prove itself again.
| Year | Roof permits |
|---|---|
| 2024 | 587 |
| 2025 | 578 |
| 2022 | 392 |
