The housing stock behind Walker County's wiring
A county-level reading of the ledger: Walker County is the 7th largest of the 29 covered counties in Alabama, and across its 791 square miles the metro's era mix sorts itself by settlement history - pre-war cores, post-war rings, late-century subdivisions, current growth edges. An electrician driving the county drives through the decades in order. The county's own share of those bands is what its 791 square miles contain, from founding-era streets to the growth edge.
The climate Walker County wiring works under
The same sky, read at county scale: Walker County's 791 square miles take the BIRMINGHAM AP, AL US record - 65.0 hot days, 47.0 freezing nights, 56.62 inches of precipitation - and convert it into load on real systems, from the oldest farmhouse service to the newest subdivision panel. Extremes cluster here the way they do across the metro, because the weather that makes them crosses the whole footprint at once. Neighbours Jefferson County, Tuscaloosa County and Blount County read the same record off the same station - the weather is the one thing counties here fully share.
