Why foundations move in Escondido
The soil, and what it does
The USDA soil survey inside Escondido comes back Placentia at about 40 percent of the survey, with Vista and Ramona alongside it. By texture that survey runs 60 percent clay and 40 percent sand. Linear extensibility, the measure of how much a soil swells when it takes on water and shrinks when it dries, is weighted at 3.7 percent here, which USDA reads as moderate shrink swell potential. Clay content is 60 percent inside the city and 27 percent countywide.
The housing stock
Most of what we walk into here was built in the 1970s, 14,669 homes, around a median build year of 1980. Pre 1980 construction accounts for 26,495 homes here, and that is the group where original drainage is usually the story. 31 percent of the housing here, 15,914 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, 70 percent carry a mortgage.
