The housing stock behind Alexander County's wiring
The stock figures also explain the service mix a county generates. Where Alexander County's share of the metro's 75,773 pre-1980 homes is dense, panel and wiring-generation work leads; where its share of the 33,419 post-2000 homes dominates, the calls are about capacity for new loads instead. Both shares exist here - their proportions are the county's signature. For Alexander County specifically, the practical translation is simple: your street's build decade predicts your panel's generation better than any metro average can.
The climate Alexander County wiring works under
Position modifies the record: Alexander County sits 14 miles north-east of the Hickory centre, and exposure follows position - the county's open edges take the storm seasons differently from the metro's built-up core, and its low ground and high ground split the freeze and flood patterns between them. The station numbers are the baseline; the county's terrain deals them out. Position matters at the margins: the 2nd closest of the metro's 4 covered counties to its centre, Alexander County takes the metro's storm seasons from the north-east side of the footprint.
