The housing stock behind Bristol County's wiring
Within Bristol County itself, the era question has a geography: the oldest stock stands where the county first settled and along its earliest road corridors, the newest at the subdivisions still being wired today. The metro's bands - 70.5% pre-1980 against 10.3% since 2000 - are the backdrop; the county's own streets decide which band a given home falls in. The county's own share of those bands is what its 553 square miles contain, from founding-era streets to the growth edge.
The climate Bristol County wiring works under
The same sky, read at county scale: Bristol County's 553 square miles take the PROVIDENCE T F GREEN AP, RI US record - 11.9 hot days, 109.0 freezing nights, 47.54 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. The county's 553 square miles take that record whole; there is no milder version of it inside the county line.
