The housing stock behind Carter County's wiring
Consider what the median build year of 1976 hides: a county of 409 square miles holds farmhouses, founding-era streets, tract suburbs and new estates side by side, each wired to the standard of its decade. Carter County's pages in that spread are its own, which is why its electrical patterns are ranked for the metro but read at county scale. Its neighbours - Greenup County, Boyd County and Lawrence County - hold the same bands in different proportions, which is why their pages read differently from this one.
The climate Carter County wiring works under
The climate record is kept at HUNTINGTON TRI STATE AP, WV US, the NOAA station for this metro: 4,321 heating degree days and 1,234 cooling degree days in an average year, 45.1 inches of precipitation, 25.0 days at 90 degrees or more against 90.1 nights at or below freezing. Carter County lives under that same sky. Its electrical meaning is practical: heating and cooling equipment sets the load peaks, storm seasons test the service connection, and the extremes — not the averages — are when marginal systems in the county announce themselves. Position matters at the margins: the 7th closest of the metro's 8 covered counties to its centre, Carter County takes the metro's storm seasons from the west side of the footprint.
