A median home value of $654,100 supports investment in deck building. That is above most of the markets we cover (89th percentile of 401 markets). The typical market we cover sits at $369,200. Across the 46 other California markets we cover the average is $764,937, so Salinas sits below the state pattern. For a deck building operator, that is a genuine tailwind worth building marketing and capacity around.
58% of homes predate 1980, so aging exteriors keep deck building in demand. That is near the middle of the markets we cover (57th percentile of 401 markets). The typical market we cover sits at 55%.

Salinas's single-family detached share is 55%, a smaller driver of deck building demand than in many of the markets we cover. That is near the middle of the markets we cover (49th percentile of 401 markets). The typical market we cover sits at 56%.

deck building seasonality in Salinas: a month-by-month calendar
