How do San Bernardino County neighborhoods rate for flood risk on FEMA's National Risk Index?

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 (it reflects expected losses and vulnerability, not just the floodplain) that complements the map rather than contradicting it.

321 of 466

census tracts in San Bernardino County are rated Relatively High or higher for riverine or coastal flood risk by FEMA's National Risk Index.

Census tracts in San Bernardino County	466
… rated Relatively High or Very High for flood (riverine or coastal)	321

These are tract-level ratings (neighborhood scale), not parcel-precise, and not a count of individual homes — see the note below. Every figure is from FEMA's National Risk Index: https://hazards.fema.gov/nri/.

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

Counts come straight from FEMA's National Risk Index census-tract layer, filtered to San Bernardino County (state-county FIPS 06071).
A tract is counted when its riverine or coastal flood rating is "Relatively High" or "Very High" — FEMA's own categorical ratings, never a proprietary score.
This is a tract (neighborhood) count, not a homes count. A precise "homes outside the FEMA flood zone" figure can't be derived from the free National Risk Index data, so we don't claim one.
This is general public-data information — not a Natural Hazard Disclosure Statement, and it does not satisfy California Civil Code §1103.2.
