The housing stock behind Chester County's wiring
Consider what the median build year of 1966 hides: a county of 751 square miles holds farmhouses, founding-era streets, tract suburbs and new estates side by side, each wired to the standard of its decade. Chester County's pages in that spread are its own, which is why its electrical patterns are ranked for the metro but read at county scale. Inside Chester County, that ledger is local: drive from its oldest streets to its newest subdivisions - 24 miles west of the metro centre - and the panels age and modernise with the scenery.
The climate Chester County wiring works under

Chester County lives under that same sky.
