Birmingham's housing was primarily built during the 1940s through 1960s, with 39.43% of the city's housing from this era. Pre-1970 homes often have knob-and-tube wiring, cast iron plumbing, lead paint, and aging HVAC systems. The humid subtropical climate brings hot summers and rainfall spread fairly evenly throughout the year, with spring as the wettest season.
