Atascocita Housing Stock
The median Atascocita home dates to 2005, according to the Census ACS. That makes the typical house about 21 years old. Newer homes are built tighter, so oversized equipment is a common problem. It short-cycles, wastes energy and leaves rooms clammy. About 26,000 households here own their home, 83.3% of the occupied total. Homes here have a median value of $283,700 and households a median income of $114,443. Those two numbers drive the labor adjustment in our estimate.
Harris County had 28 hail days and 44 days with damaging thunderstorm winds from 2020 through 2025, according to NOAA storm records. The largest hail reported was 2 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. Harris County also had 9 tornado days in that period.
