Homes and buildings in Alton

Most of Alton is fairly new: only about 9% of homes were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 2004. With newer double-pane windows, the usual problems are a failed seal, cracked glass or a sliding door that has worn through its rollers. More homes here went up in the 2010s than in any other period. That makes its housing newer than about 87% of Texas towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 64% single-family houses and 7% in apartment buildings. About 61% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
