What 18102's housing stock means for your pickup

This ZIP packs about 51,315 residents into roughly 3.0 square miles, a density of about 17,208 people per square mile. That density means most jobs here happen in multi-unit buildings or rowhomes, where access is through a shared entrance or narrow stairwell rather than a wide driveway.

About 16 percent of homes are in buildings of five units or more, while only about 13 percent are single-family detached. With a median build year of 1938, many of these buildings have older staircases, tight landings, and doorways that need careful navigation.

Snow cover makes outdoor removal a spring job and moves everything else into the basement and garage. With about 33 inches of snow a year and about 47 inches of precipitation, winter pickups often focus on indoor spaces, while spring clears out what the weather kept inside.
