- Snowfall a year

Based on NOAA 1991 to 2020 climate normals for Omaha Eppley Airfield, about 12 miles away.
What is under the ground here
A city level sample here returns urban fill, not a natural series. Widen it to Sarpy County and the USDA survey reads Contrary at about 24 percent of the survey, with Marshall and Judson alongside it. Broken down by texture it is 56 percent clay, 22 percent silt and 6 percent sand. Weighted linear extensibility runs 4.16 percent, meaning the soil changes volume enough between wet and dry to rate moderate for shrink swell.
What these homes were built like
The largest group of homes here by build period, 5,203 of them, went up in the 1970s; the median build year is 1979. 13,215 of those homes predate 1980, which is where we most often find footing drains that were never installed and backfill that was never compacted. 25 percent of the housing here, 6,113 units, sits in buildings of five or more, so a fair share of local work is on shared structures rather than single family homes. Of the owner occupied homes, 67 percent carry a mortgage.

"Most yard drainage calls I take, the homeowner thinks they have a foundation problem. They have a roof problem. Twelve hundred gallons coming off the roof in a one-inch rain, half of it landing within six feet of the wall, and a basement that didn't leak in 1985 leaks every spring now. Two hundred dollars of buried downspout pipe solves it. That's the call I want to make."
