The housing stock behind Johnston County's wiring
Within Johnston 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 - 19.7% pre-1980 against 47.3% since 2000 - are the backdrop; the county's own streets decide which band a given home falls in. Its neighbours - Wake County, Nash County and Franklin County - hold the same bands in different proportions, which is why their pages read differently from this one.
The climate Johnston County wiring works under
Neighbouring counties share this sky almost exactly - Wake County, Nash County and Franklin County work under the same normals - yet the electrical outcomes differ by housing, which is the recurring lesson of this site's data: climate sets the load, building eras decide what the load breaks. From Johnston County's position - 20 miles south of the centre - those seasons arrive with the county's own exposure, not the core city's.
