Richardson at a Glance
Climate figures: NOAA 1991–2020 normals from the Dallas Love Fld, TX station, about 12 miles away.
Planning Around the Weather
DOE's Building America map puts Dallas County in the Hot-Humid climate region (IECC 2021 zone 2A, PNNL county guide). This region pairs heat with humidity for much of the year; for long rentals in the hot months, ask how often units will be serviced.
Heat
About 108 days a year reach 90°F or more, more than nine in ten U.S. places in our data, so heat is the normal condition for months at a time. About 22 days a year go past 100°F. For long rentals in the hot, humid months, ask how often units will be serviced. For rentals longer than a day in the warm months, set servicing by the heat rather than the calendar, shade the units, and add hand-wash stations.
Rain and Ground
Heavy rain days are frequent: about 12 days a year bring an inch or more of precipitation, out of about 38 inches in total. Soft ground is the risk: units belong on a firm, level base the service truck can reach without crossing a soggy lawn, and an ADA unit needs a route that does not turn to mud.
Occasional Freezes
Only about 23 nights a year reach 32°F (fewer than three in four U.S. places in our data), but one hard freeze is enough to damage anything that holds water. For winter dates, ask what the provider does with water-carrying units when a freeze is forecast.
Job Sites and Home Projects
New Housing
About 20.6% of Richardson's housing units were built in 2010 or later (ACS 2020–2024), above the U.S. share of 11.4% and higher than three in four 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 Richardson's housing is 1986 (ACS 2020–2024), newer 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 Richardson's housing, about 44% 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 detached houses, about 54% of units (lower than three in four U.S. places in our data), followed by buildings with five or more units at about 36% (ACS 2020–2024). Detached houses usually have a driveway or yard where a crew's unit can stand within reach of the service truck. Apartment and condo projects bring larger crews, and a property manager decides where units go. About 49% of occupied homes are rented (owner share lower than three in four U.S. places in our data), so check who controls the property before a unit goes on it.
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 Richardson.
Events, Weddings and Parties
On one of Richardson's hot days, a five-hour event for 1,000 people 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, and with heavy rain this common the ADA unit needs a route that stays firm when the grass is wet.
With only about 23 freezing nights a year, summer is the season to plan around; for a summer wedding, a restroom trailer brings air conditioning but needs a power source, while deluxe units need no hookups. For a party at an apartment complex or a rented home, the property manager or landlord decides where units can stand. More: event restrooms in Richardson and wedding restroom options.
