Local housing stock
Built around a median year of 2014, under a third of the housing (11.3 percent) in Balm is older than 1990, so much of it was fitted for cooling the way builders of the mid 2010s went about it. Balm's median house dates from 2014, and where one that recent has a large, doorless walk-in shower, its steam spreads freely into the bedroom and the closet beyond, where it settles as water on the cold supply grilles and on whatever hangs nearest them.
Climate & seasonal risk
The normal dewpoint in Balm stays at or above 70 degrees around the clock in July and August, reaching 75.2 in August; August is the wettest month, with 9.96 of 54.45 inches, rain recorded at SUN CITY CENTER 1.0 NE 3.4 miles away and dewpoint 21 miles away. August's downpours land on yards graded only a few years ago, and around a recent house the fill packed against the foundation keeps settling, so ground built to fall away from the slab can tip back toward it and hold the water at the base of the wall.
What keeps buildings wet here
- Fill packed around recent foundations that settles through its first wet seasons, tipping the yard back toward the slab so rain gathers at the base of the wall
- Doorless walk-in showers in houses of the 2010s, whose steam reaches bedrooms and closets and settles on cold supply grilles
- Septic fields on record at 124 homes, which after a week of August storms take household water more slowly, so tubs and showers drain sluggishly
