Sunken concrete in Newtown
In Newtown's newer neighborhoods (half built after 1976), settling often comes from backfill around the foundation that's still compacting: the classic sunken patio or stoop beside a newer house. Most Newtown homes are single-family (87%), so leveling calls here are usually a homeowner's walk, patio or garage apron that dropped at one end.
Most leveling calls in Newtown are the familiar ones: a walk panel that dropped at a joint, a stoop that tipped toward the house, a garage apron that sank.
The median home in Newtown was built in 1976, newer than the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's older than nearby Oxford, where the median is 1986.
