Parcel Risk Report

Flood risk in and around Cudahy, Los Angeles County

FEMA's official flood map draws the 1%-annual-chance floodplain. FEMA's National Risk Index adds a comparative flood-risk rating for every census tract — a broader, neighborhood-scale measure. Here's how the tracts in and around Cudahy rate, and how to check one address.

FEMA's National Risk Index does not rate the tracts in and around Cudahy among the higher flood-risk neighborhoods. That is not a determination of zero risk — the National Risk Index is a comparative neighborhood rating, and the official FEMA flood map can still place an individual property in a flood zone. These are tract-level ratings (neighborhood scale), not parcel-precise and not a count of homes.

How this figure is derived (and what it is not)

Counts come from FEMA's National Risk Index census-tract layer, limited to the tracts that intersect the U.S. Census Bureau 2020 boundary of Cudahy (Los Angeles County, state-county FIPS 06037).
A tract is counted when its riverine or coastal flood rating is "Relatively High" or "Very High" — FEMA's own comparative categorical classes, never a proprietary score, never a per-parcel prediction.
We say "in and around Cudahy" on purpose: census tracts don't line up with city limits, so a tract is included if it touches the boundary — and for a small city, many counted tracts may extend well beyond its limits. Read the figure as the surrounding neighborhood, not the city alone. It is a tract count, not a homes count, and not parcel-precise.
