Stickney Township, measured.
12,313 residential parcels on the official record. Median home built 1958. 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 Stickney's housing is made of.
84.1% of Stickney's homes predate 1980. 98.3% carry asphalt-shingle roofs, 44.9% are masonry-walled (not a siding market), and 66.6% have a full or partial basement. 92.0% are owner-occupied.
Flood exposure: 0 homes sit in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, while 2,458 (20.0%) carry a First Street flood factor of 5+ — water risk beyond the mapped floodplain.
The 11,000–11,500 homes at 25+ years with no roof permit on file are where Stickney's replacement cycle is furthest along — that cohort, minus fresh permits, is the campaign surface.
Re-roof waves
Stickney's permit history has a shape.
Roof permits in Stickney 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 |
|---|---|
| 2020 | 100 |
| 2022 | 92 |
| 2023 | 85 |
