Most roof coverings in Oxnard fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later.

Roof age across Oxnard clusters around the decades when the area filled in, which means whole streets reach the end of their covering within a few seasons of each other. Streets in Oxnard that were built out together tend to need roofs together, which is why one re-roof frequently brings three more on the same block.

5The Conditions a Oxnard Roof Works Against
