Saint Johns is the 48th largest block of laterals we cover in Florida, carrying about 0.4% of the 5,057,316 homes on our FL list, and its housing runs older than 4% of the FL towns we route. Age concentration matters on a lateral: where a whole street went in one season, the failures arrive in one season too.
89% of homes here are owner-occupied — 23 points above the FL figure. That matters more on a lateral than on almost any other pipe in the house: the run from the building to the main is the property owner’s to repair, and a landlord and a resident owner do not find that out at the same speed.
