Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Roughly 31% of the local housing stock was built before 1960, but material readings still control cleanup decisions. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Harlem was built in the 1970s. Basement conversions from this era can add finished walls near low drains. Protective extraction follows the contamination path, not a construction date.
Snow and ice outside do not reveal how much contamination reached indoor flooring. A mixed housing area can include single homes and managed properties with different access rules.
