Freezing nights are rare here, but a normal year brings 59 days over 90°F.

Boca Raton Housing Stock
The median Boca Raton home dates to 1983, according to the Census ACS. That makes the typical house about 43 years old. A lot of these homes are on their second or third system by now. The ductwork is usually original, and leaky joints are common. Owners live in 65.8% of occupied homes, roughly 27,000 households. With a median household income of $102,722 and a median home value of $660,100, local labor rates come out above the national middle in our model.
Between 2020 and 2025, NOAA's Storm Events Database logged 21 hail days and 28 days with damaging thunderstorm winds in Palm Beach County. The largest hail reported was 1.75 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. Palm Beach County also had 13 tornado days in that period. In Boca Raton, 24.7% of residents are 65 or older. For older adults, a house with no heat in January or no AC during a heat wave is a medical risk. Mention it when you call, since many companies put those calls first.
