Three listings at Jamesville, and the town's own numbers
Jamesville is not a Census-designated place and does not appear in the American Community Survey place-level tables for Onondaga County. It is a hamlet in the Town of DeWitt, so the closest published housing-age figures covering it are DeWitt's: a median year of construction of 1963, 18.7 percent of units built in 1939 or earlier and 44.2 percent in 1959 or earlier. The National Park Service does record three individual National Register listings at Jamesville, the Dr. John Ives House, Saint Mark's Church and the Southwood Two-Teacher School.

The National Park Service's National Register records place three listings at Jamesville: the Dr. John Ives House, recorded with three contributing buildings, Saint Mark's Church, and the Southwood Two-Teacher School. All three are individual listings. There is no National Register historic district at Jamesville and none of the metro's district polygons covers it.

What the numbers do and do not say about Jamesville
If your address is Jamesville, there is a data quirk worth knowing before anybody quotes. Jamesville is not a Census designated place, so it has no published median build year of its own, and the closest figures covering it are the Town of DeWitt's: a median of 1963, 18.7 percent of units built in 1939 or earlier and 44.2 percent before 1960. The National Register does record three individual listings there, the Dr. John Ives House, Saint Mark's Church and the Southwood Two-Teacher School, but no district at all. So the standard for replacing brick on your house is the one you set.
Sorting repairable units from lost ones
Three piles, and the sorting is most of the job. Units with surface loss but their depth and shape intact stay, because replacing repairable material is the expensive mistake. Units cracked through, loose, or spalled deeper than the face come out and get matched on size, texture and absorption. Units that are simply dirty are a cleaning question rather than a replacement one. On a town this mixed the sorting also depends on age: prewar Jamesville brick is probably irreplaceable and worth saving, while 1960s DeWitt brick is usually still findable.
Jamesville has no figures of its own
Jamesville is not a Census designated place and does not appear in the place level tables for Onondaga County, so it has no published median build year. The closest published figures covering it are the Town of DeWitt's, and they should be described as the town's rather than the hamlet's.
Three individual listings, and no district
The National Register records three listings at Jamesville: the Dr. John Ives House, recorded with three contributing buildings, Saint Mark's Church, and the Southwood Two-Teacher School. All three are individual listings, there is no district, and none of the metro's district boundaries covers the hamlet.
The town's numbers are the closest thing you have
DeWitt's 10,996 units give a median build year of 1963, with 18.7 percent built in 1939 or earlier and 44.2 percent before 1960. That is a wide enough spread that the build year of your own house matters more than any figure for the area around it.
DeWitt, Jamesville, or somewhere between?
Send the address and the build year if you have it. Brick from before 1940 gets treated differently from brick after it.
Other DeWitt and Jamesville work on the same wall
Failed brick: what DeWitt and Jamesville owners ask
Is my Jamesville house in a historic district?
No. The National Register records three listings at Jamesville, the Dr. John Ives House, Saint Mark's Church and the Southwood Two-Teacher School, and all three are individual listings rather than districts. There is no district at Jamesville and none of the metro's district boundaries covers it. So unless your house is one of those three, there is no district review before work and no contributing building route into the state homeowner credit.
How old is a typical Jamesville house?
Nobody can tell you precisely, and it is better to say so than to invent a number. Jamesville is not a Census designated place, so it has no published median build year, and the nearest published figures are the Town of DeWitt's: a median of 1963 with 18.7 percent built in 1939 or earlier and 44.2 percent before 1960. Those are the town's numbers rather than the hamlet's, and the build year of your own house beats both of them.
