I think 10-20% might be an overestimate, at least in my experience in the US. I don't think I've ever been in a building that has an accessible roof. Maybe if you could precision target second-story balconies you'd get 10-20% in some regions?


It depends on your locale - in southern cities this number is going to be quite a lot higher than 10-20% since a decent number of even detached houses have flat roofs because snow isn't a thing - but heading into northern altitudes only apartment/condo towers will tend to have a flat roof (and some of them even have peeked roofs due to the snow).


By "such a location" I mean a reasonably safe and drone accessible spot to drop packets. Not only my specific roof situation.
