What the evidence supports

One airport station and a defined period

SMN and WMO 1991 to 2020 normals for Bahía Blanca Aero give annual mean temperature of 15.4°C (59.7°F) and annual precipitation of 639.1 mm. The airport station is approximately 8.9 km straight-line from the Georef locality centroid. Rain days use at least 1 mm. Normals do not predict the next storm or parcel flood probability.1

Price the building's seasonal needs

EDES publishes a September 2026 tariff document, but a complete electricity bill still depends on usage, category, subsidies and tax. Request a bill estimate for the exact meter and household usage. A tariff document does not establish a representative household bill.2

Camuzzi lists an account number, DNI and proof of residence for changing the gas account holder online. Regional gas operator guidance. Service unused for more than one year needs an internal installation inspection. The in-person or chat guidance allows DNI or similar, without resolving passport acceptance. Provincial tax documents may also be requested. No household gas bill is estimated.3

A climate average is not a flood model

Municipal Decree 394 of March 8, 2025 records the March 7 flood and declares a broad emergency for the Bahía Blanca district. A historical emergency and substantial damage are verified. It does not prove every listed neighborhood flooded equally or every property remains damaged. Current recovery and exact parcel exposure need separate checks.4

The municipality reports inspecting four kilometers of the covered Napostá channel on August 28, 2026, from Paseo de las Esculturas to the bus-terminal area. The report says this closed section was clear and operating when inspected. It is not a no-flood guarantee or a parcel-specific exposure assessment.5
