Grown from almost nothing
Centerville was incorporated on March 25, 1958. Its population was 290 in 1960, which means nearly all of its houses were built in the six decades since. Warner Robins wraps around it to the east and south, and Watson Boulevard forms its southern edge.
What that means for crawl spaces
Because the housing stock came in waves from the 1960s on, the crawl space issues vary by neighborhood age. The oldest homes are the most likely to need a first full ground cover, insulation work and framing repair. Homes from the 1980s through the 2000s often have plastic that's been torn up by service work and vents that let summer humidity in. Encapsulation and a dehumidifier are common fixes for both.
Housing snapshot
The 2020 census counted 3,530 housing units in Centerville, with a homeowner vacancy rate of 2.3 percent.

My Centerville home has a musty smell only in summer. Why?
That's typical of a vented crawl space pulling in humid summer air. Sealing the crawl space and controlling humidity usually helps.
