Midland Housing Stock
Half the homes in Midland were built before 1986 (Census ACS median), so the typical house is about 40 years old. Plenty of houses from this period still run original 1990s or early-2000s equipment, which is past its expected service life. About 34,000 households here own their home, 65.1% of the occupied total. Homes here have a median value of $298,600 and households a median income of $91,169. Those two numbers drive the labor adjustment in our estimate.
NOAA storm reports for Midland County show 14 hail days and 31 days with damaging thunderstorm winds over the six years from 2020 to 2025. The largest hail reported was 4 inches across. Hail flattens the thin aluminum fins on condenser coils and cuts airflow. After a big storm, take a look at the outdoor unit; homeowners insurance often covers the damage.
