The housing stock behind Stokes County's wiring
Within Stokes 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 - 44.3% pre-1980 against 25.3% 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 449 square miles contain, from founding-era streets to the growth edge.
The climate Stokes County wiring works under

Panels, circuits and service equipment across the county's 449 square miles are all working inside those three numbers. Neighbours Forsyth County, Rockingham County and Yadkin County read the same record off the same station - the weather is the one thing counties here fully share.
