The housing stock behind Hillsborough's wiring
The era ledger, applied locally: across the Tampa metro, 40.0% of homes predate 1980 and the median build year is 1985. Counties are where that ledger becomes addresses. In Hillsborough, the older bands cluster where the county first grew; the newer bands where it is growing now. Each band wires its homes differently and ages them differently, and the services this page links to are ordered by the patterns the combined record produces. Its neighbours - Pinellas County, Manatee County and Pasco County - hold the same bands in different proportions, which is why their pages read differently from this one.
The climate Hillsborough wiring works under
For Hillsborough, the climate figures have a local accent: heating degree days of 434 against cooling degree days of 3,928 describe a county whose systems work both ends of the year, and whose failure seasons - deep cold, peak heat, storm weeks - are predictable from the record even when individual calls are not. Position matters at the margins: the 2nd closest of the metro's 4 covered counties to its centre, Hillsborough takes the metro's storm seasons from the south-east side of the footprint.

For context, Hillsborough's nearest covered neighbours are Pinellas County, Manatee County and Pasco County. A homeowner comparing pages will find the same metro figures underneath each - and different conclusions on top, because the counties weight the shared record differently. That difference is the entire reason this layer of the site exists.
