What 17520 homes tend to produce
About 67 percent of homes in this ZIP were built before 1980, which means many basements, attics, and garages hold decades of accumulated items. With about 11 percent of occupied homes rented, turnovers and move-out cleanouts are a regular part of the job here.
With roughly 2,221 housing units in about 1.8 square miles, the density sits around 2,727 people per square mile. That means driveways and curbs are often tighter, so a crew that plans the loading route matters.
A short winter means yard debris tends to pile up for a few weeks rather than a few months. When it clears, branches and brush come out all at once.
