48,390 Homes at High or Extreme Risk from Destructive California Wildfires, CoreLogic Finds

  Monday, November 12th, 2018 Source: CoreLogic

The tables above break down the risk for each fire and the corresponding ZIP codes affected as well as the RCVs for properties in each area. RCVs represent the cost to completely rebuild a property in the worst-case scenario of total destruction of the structure, including labor and materials by geographic location. While other hazards may cause partial destruction but rarely eliminate an entire property, wildfire events are more likely to cause total loss to structures affected. Understanding the data: Due to the unpredictable nature of wildfires and the presently evolving disaster in California, not all homes in the ZIP codes provided are currently within the burn perimeter of these fires. It is also important to note that not all structures within a fire perimeter will suffer damage or be destroyed by the fire. To get a sense of scale of how much of each ZIP is currently affected by the fires at this point in time, contact a CoreLogic media representative at newsmedia@corelogic.com. CoreLogic will run a post-fire analysis to provide an accurate assessment of losses and destruction. Following the containment of the wildfires, CoreLogic will assess the damage and provide a post-catastrophe loss estimate for these areas. For more information visit the CoreLogic natural hazard risk information center, Hazard HQ™, at www.hazardhq.com to get access to the most up-to-date wildfire data and see reports from previous catastrophes. Methodology The CoreLogic Wildfire Risk Score is a deterministic wildfire model which is as comprehensive as it is granular. It covers 15 states: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. It evaluates the risk of a property to wildfire by returning an easy-to-understand, normalized 5 to 100 score, giving insight into the potential risk of a wildfire. It considers slope, aspect, vegetation/fuel, and surface composition as well as proximity to higher risk areas that could affect the property via windblown embers. These factors are all weighted differently and combine to form the score.
