Local housing stock
Of roughly 9,575 housing units, about 6,584 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1975. Frame housing on stone and early masonry basements predominates with a median build year of 1975, much of it stepped along the river corridor.
Climate & seasonal risk
October alone accounts for 10.7 percent of the 50.45 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 2.4 miles away at PORTLAND 5.5 WNW. October peaks at 5.39 inches of a 50.45 inch total, and the autumn maximum lands just before the ground freezes. Water taken on in October stays in the profile through the winter, so the spring release begins with soil that was already loaded before the first snow.
Common moisture and mold problems in Westbrook
- An autumn rainfall maximum loading the ground immediately before it freezes for the season
- A river corridor with steep banks concentrating both runoff and groundwater near the channel
- Stone and early masonry basements built to breathe rather than to act as a barrier
- Ice damming on steep older roofs during the thaw cycles that punctuate the cold months
