What the numbers mean at the panel, for a county inside this metro: 250,359 of the footprint's homes predate 1980, built when panels were smaller and circuits fewer; 144,826 arrived since 2000 with modern service sizes. Prince George 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. Its neighbours - Hopewell city, Petersburg city and Colonial Heights city - hold the same bands in different proportions, which is why their pages read differently from this one.
