Sunnyvale at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Moffett Federal Airfield, CA station, about 2 miles away.
Planning Around the Weather
DOE's Building America map puts Santa Clara County in the Marine climate region (IECC 2021 zone 3C, PNNL county guide). This region has mild temperatures most of the year but long damp seasons, so wet ground is usually a bigger issue than heat or cold.
Dry, Windy Sites
Only about 13 inches of precipitation falls in an average year, in the driest tenth of U.S. places in our data. Dry ground usually holds a truck and a wheelchair well, but open, dry sites can get windy and dusty: ask for units to be staked or tied down on exposed ground.
Mild Temperatures
Heat and cold rarely get in the way here: about 9 days a year reach 90°F and about 2 nights reach 32°F. Water-carrying units such as hand-wash stations and restroom trailers can usually run all year, and a service schedule can follow your dates rather than the season.
Job Sites and Home Projects
New Housing
About 11.8% of Sunnyvale's housing units were built in 2010 or later (ACS 2020–2024), above the U.S. share of 11.4% and higher than most U.S. places in our data: newer construction sits alongside older stock, so job sites range from new homes to additions and repairs.
Homes From the 1970s and 1980s
The median year built for Sunnyvale's housing is 1976 (ACS 2020–2024), older than most U.S. places in our data. Housing from that era is now 35 to 55 years old; crews replacing roofs, windows or mechanical systems on it need a toilet on site like any other crew.
Older Paint on Renovation Jobs
A large share of Sunnyvale's housing, about 57% of units, was built before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). EPA’s Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule covers paid work that disturbs painted surfaces in homes built before 1978, and OSHA’s lead standard for construction (29 CFR 1926.62) requires adequate hand-washing facilities for workers exposed to lead. If the crew will sand, scrape or demolish old paint, put one of the hand-wash stations next to the toilet.
Apartments, Townhouses and Rentals
The most common housing type is buildings with five or more units, about 39% of units (higher than nine in ten U.S. places in our data), followed by detached houses at about 36% (ACS 2020–2024). Apartment and condo projects bring larger crews, and a property manager decides where units go. About 56% of occupied homes are renter-occupied (ACS; owner share lower than nine in ten U.S. places in our data), so property managers and landlords often book the units for renovations and decide where they stand.
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 scales with headcount: 45 workers on an apartment or condo site need 2 toilet seats and 2 urinals, 210 need 5 of each. More on sizing: job-site porta potties in Sunnyvale.
Events, Weddings and Parties
A long community event for 500 people over eight hours needs 9 units on the PSAI event chart, or 10 to 11 with alcohol (PSAI adds 10–20%). Every cluster of restrooms needs at least 5% accessible units, rounded up; hard, dry ground usually works as the route to the ADA unit, loose sand or gravel does not.
Most dates suit outdoor events; a restroom trailer needs a level spot, a power source and a lit path for an evening reception. For a party at an apartment complex or a rented home, the property manager or landlord decides where units can stand. At open-field events on dry, exposed ground, ask for units to be staked.

Who to Ask About Local Rules
Sunnyvale is an incorporated city with its own municipal government. For an event on public land, or a unit that will stand on a street, sidewalk or in a park, ask the Sunnyvale city government before you book what applies.
If you rent your home, check with the landlord or property manager before a unit goes on the property.
