The housing stock behind Orange County's wiring
Housing age is destiny for wiring, and the record the Census keeps for this footprint is specific: a median home built in 1979, 17.7% of the stock from before 1960, 51.2% from before 1980. Inside Orange County, that history concentrates the way it does everywhere — oldest near the founding settlements and the early corridors, youngest at the subdivisions still filling in. The electrical consequences are the metro's, felt at county scale: ageing panels where the stock is old, modern loads asking new questions where it is young. The county's own share of those bands is what its 334 square miles contain, from founding-era streets to the growth edge.
