Local housing stock
The median home in Delray Beach was built in 1983, with 66.2 percent standing before 1990; when a house went up tends to decide where its air handler sits and how far its ducts run through attic heat. About one home in nine here is held for seasonal use, and a house or condominium closed for the summer with its cooling set high takes on the outdoor humidity for months, in its closets, drywall and furnishings, until it is opened again.
Climate & seasonal risk
Delray Beach spends four months in which the dewpoint never falls below 70 degrees, day or night, from June through September; of 65.64 inches in a normal year, 8.54 fall in June, rain recorded at DELRAY BEACH 1.6 WSW 1.6 miles away and dewpoint 15.8 miles away. The city's four miles of Atlantic beach lie on a barrier island east of the Intracoastal, where the wet season's onshore wind leaves salt on stucco and window frames, and salt held in a surface keeps drawing water out of the humid air.
What keeps buildings wet here
- Seasonal homes, about one in nine, closed through the summer with the cooling set high, so the outdoor humidity settles into closets, drywall and furniture until the owner returns
- 1920s houses in the Marina Historic District, with walls of wood frame and hollow tile under stucco, where rain past a cracked finish reaches both the tile and the framing
- Buildings on the barrier island east of the Intracoastal, where wind off the surf leaves salt on walls and screens and that salt keeps pulling moisture from the air
- Buildings of ten or more units, close to a third of the city's homes, where a unit closed for the season sits between neighbors whose cooling runs every day
