Homes and buildings in Carthage

About 79% of homes in Carthage were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1938. Buildings that age often still have older single-pane glass and worn aluminum frames, so loose panes, failing seals and tired door hardware come up a lot. More homes here went up before 1940 than in any other period. That makes its housing older than about 76% of New York towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 52% single-family houses and 14% in apartment buildings. More than half of the homes here are rented, so we also work with landlords and property managers.
