Homes in Amherst
How old are homes in Amherst, and what does that mean for the exterior?
The median home in Amherst was built in 1978, the same as the Hillsborough County median. About 11 percent were built in 1939 or earlier, which means a small group of older houses and a large group from the postwar decades on.
About 92 percent of occupied homes in Amherst are owner-occupied, so most jobs are a homeowner repainting a house they plan to keep. On a home from the 1970s, cleaning, scraping and priming take as much care as the finish coat.
