The housing stock behind Wayne County's wiring
Read the county through the metro's Census profile: 1,755,372 households across the footprint, 70.9% of homes owner-occupied, and era bands of 764,000 homes before 1960, 513,163 from 1960-1979, 384,872 from 1980-1999 and 252,752 since 2000. Those bands are the county's electrical inheritance in waiting: the pre-1980 bands bring panel-capacity and wiring-generation questions; the newer bands bring device wear and EV-readiness questions.

Inside Wayne County, that ledger is local: drive from its oldest streets to its newest subdivisions - 29 miles south of the metro centre - and the panels age and modernise with the scenery.
