The housing stock behind Austin County's wiring
What the numbers mean at the panel, for a county inside this metro: 925,676 of the footprint's homes predate 1980, built when panels were smaller and circuits fewer; 1,135,798 arrived since 2000 with modern service sizes. Austin County contains its own proportion of both — and a homeowner here can place their street in the ledger by its build decade alone, which is also how the electricians serving the county triage what they are likely to find. The county's own share of those bands is what its 646 square miles contain, from founding-era streets to the growth edge.
The climate Austin County wiring works under
Position modifies the record: Austin County sits 53 miles west of the Houston 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. The county's 646 square miles take that record whole; there is no milder version of it inside the county line.
