How conditions differ across Mercer County
Mercer County is a rural area with a population density of about 8 people per square mile across its 453.8 square miles. That means homes sit far apart, and the job conditions change with each property. One house may have a long gravel drive, while another sits close to a narrow county road.
The housing stock leans toward single-family detached homes, with about 82 percent of units fitting that description. About 8 percent are mobile or manufactured homes.
The median year a home here was built is 1971, and only about 6 percent were built in 2010 or later, so the crew plans for older layouts, narrower stairways, and outbuildings that have seen decades of use.
About 21 percent of occupied homes are rented, which means property managers and landlords handle turnovers. New construction is not a factor here, with about 0 new homes authorized in 2024, so the work is focused on existing properties and what they have accumulated.
