The stock
What Norwood Park's housing is made of.
90.5% of Norwood Park's homes predate 1980. 96.1% carry asphalt-shingle roofs, 65.3% are masonry-walled (not a siding market), and 91.0% have a full or partial basement. 88.6% are owner-occupied.
Flood exposure: 0 homes sit in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, while 53 (0.6%) carry a First Street flood factor of 5+, which is water risk beyond the mapped floodplain.
The read for contractors
The 7,500–8,000 homes at 25+ years with no roof permit on file are where Norwood Park's replacement cycle is furthest along. That cohort, minus fresh permits, is the campaign surface.

Re-roof waves
Norwood Park's permit history has a shape.
Roof permits in Norwood Park cluster into waves; the county file shows the biggest recent years to the right. Homes that didn't replace during a wave are aging on the same clock as the neighbors that did.
The read for contractors
Campaign the non-replacers inside a past wave's footprint. Demand that already proved itself once tends to prove itself again.
