What shapes a project in Charlotte
Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.
Mostly newer housing
The 2024 American Community Survey shows about 48 percent of Charlotte's housing units were built in 2000 or later and about 26 percent since 2010. Fewer than 10 percent were built before 1960. Many kitchens, baths and roofs are in houses less than 25 years old.
Detached homes, townhomes and large buildings
About half of Charlotte's housing units are single-family detached homes and about 9 percent are attached townhome-style units. About 20 percent sit in buildings with 20 or more units, so condo and association rules shape many interior projects.
Warm, humid climate zone
Mecklenburg County is in IECC climate zone 3A and the mixed-humid region on the Department of Energy's county map. Moisture control in crawl spaces, attics and bathrooms matters as much as insulation.
