Rockland, MA homes and water
Rockland is an old shoe-making town of 17,709 residents, 22 miles from Taunton, and 34% of its homes were built before 1950. That share is above Plymouth County's 27%. Census figures put 70% before 1980. Houses that age often have galvanized supply lines, cast iron drains and a water heater set low in a damp basement.
Snow is the winter story. Rockland averages 51 inches a year, against 39 for the county, by NOAA climate normals. Ice at the eaves backs meltwater into attic insulation and upstairs ceilings. Freezing nights are fewer than the county's, at 115 a year against 125, but a pipe in an outside wall can still split.
Renters hold 22% of homes, and 4% are mobile or manufactured. A cast iron drain that backs up brings Category 3 water into the basement. FEMA's records show 4.3% of Plymouth County homes carry federal flood insurance. Nearby homes can call for water removal in Abington, and Rockland is served with the Taunton area.
Rockland: average snowfall a year, in inches and more

What to do first in Rockland
Rockland has 34% of homes built before 1950, and many sit over old stone or block basements. When water shows up below, close the main valve first. It is usually near the front foundation wall and may need a firm turn.
Cut power to the basement before you walk in if water is near outlets or the furnace. Then photograph what you see.
Bring boxes and electronics upstairs. NOAA's climate normals show 115 freezing nights a year here, so in winter, look for a split pipe along outside walls. In spring, snowmelt can seep in instead. Water removal comes first, and old wood floors may need water-damaged floor repair later. Rockland calls go through 24/7.
