The housing stock behind Lamar County's wiring
Within Lamar 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 - 35.5% pre-1980 against 35.0% since 2000 - are the backdrop; the county's own streets decide which band a given home falls in. Its neighbours - Forrest County, Perry County and Stone County - hold the same bands in different proportions, which is why their pages read differently from this one.
The climate Lamar County wiring works under
The sky over Lamar County is measured, not guessed: NOAA's normals at HATTIESBURG CHAIN MUNI AP, MS US put the average year at 66.5 degrees with 58.91 inches of precipitation. For the county's electrical systems that translates into two load seasons and a storm exposure, all of which show up in the problem ranking on the Hattiesburg city page. Local conditions vary by exposure and elevation inside the county; the record is the shared baseline every system in it was built under. Neighbours Forrest County, Perry County and Stone County read the same record off the same station - the weather is the one thing counties here fully share.
