The housing stock behind St. Joseph County's wiring
The housing record for the South Bend metro — the footprint St. Joseph County belongs to — reads: 143,872 housing units, a median build year of 1969, 64.6% of homes from before 1980 and 15.3% built since 2000. A county's share of that stock is never the average share: counties holding the metro's historic core carry its oldest panels and wiring generations, while counties at the growth edge carry its newest. Where St. Joseph County sits in that spread is written on its streets — in the build decades of its neighbourhoods — and it is the first thing a local electrician reads on arrival. Inside St. Joseph County, that ledger is local: drive from its oldest streets to its newest subdivisions - 13 miles south-west of the metro centre - and the panels age and modernise with the scenery.

The county's 458 square miles take that record whole; there is no milder version of it inside the county line.
