Growing in MN and having Stucco homes most of my life, we never painted our stucco and it never needed it.

So I guess what I am asking is: Do people paint their block and stucco homes every 3-5 years and why? Other than to change the color of course...

Mahalo!
You are in very different climate (we are from Green Bay) Here's the secret - paint it now. Sherwin Williams Duration Satin. You won't touch it for 20 years.
