The housing stock behind Marion County's wiring
The stock figures also explain the service mix a county generates. Where Marion County's share of the metro's 82,193 pre-1980 homes is dense, panel and wiring-generation work leads; where its share of the 39,281 post-2000 homes dominates, the calls are about capacity for new loads instead. Both shares exist here - their proportions are the county's signature. The county's own share of those bands is what its 1,181 square miles contain, from founding-era streets to the growth edge.
The climate Marion County wiring works under
Neighbouring counties share this sky almost exactly - Clackamas County, Polk County and Yamhill 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. Position matters at the margins: the closest of the metro's 2 covered counties to its centre, Marion County takes the metro's storm seasons from the east side of the footprint.
