The listed Berkeley ZIP areas contain 2,039 homes according to the ACS, and 97% predate 1980. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Berkeley was built in the 1950s. Older kitchens can hide several floor finishes above original wood. Where finishes overlap, the crew tests the lower layer before concluding that the visible surface has dried.
