Risk & Response by Arborlook Insights offers free community risk profiles for 24,500+ U.S. fire departments: 18 natural hazards, social vulnerability, fire and EMS risk factors mapped tract by tract, and reported incident counts from the NERIS public feed. Connect your NERIS data to measure response performance against that risk.
Risk scores for 18 hazard types mapped to your service area, plus county-level FEMA disaster declaration history. See where your community ranks nationally.
Age distribution, disability rates, poverty, uninsured households, language barriers, and transportation access: the factors that drive call volume.
Older housing stock, high-risk heating fuels, vacant properties, and mobile homes, mapped tract by tract. See which neighborhoods need targeted prevention.
Aging population, disability prevalence, and gaps in insurance coverage concentrate EMS demand. See which tracts generate the most calls.
Compare your risk profile against matched peer departments of the same type, size, density class, and region. Useful context for board reports and grant applications.
Find your department's free risk profile. Every state is covered, plus DC and Puerto Rico. Counts are departments with a published boundary in NERIS Public; districts that cross a state line are listed in both states.
These free profiles show what your community faces. Connect your NERIS data to see where response is slowest in your highest-risk tracts, whether you're meeting NFPA standards by geography, and where to focus prevention next.

“Arborlook Insights is a force multiplier for collecting data, organizing grant writing, and many other targeted administrative objectives. Our department handles 10k+ calls for service, which is administratively managed by two Chief Officers. Every chance to simplify our workflow makes a significant difference. The ability to streamline city council reporting, target critical CRR needs, and assess overall organizational function enables effective execution of those tasks. This platform is currently being used to conduct a Public Safety Campus feasibility study, which would previously have had to be contracted at considerable expense. This feasibility study and other platform data will be part of a strong application for BRIC, AFG, and FP&S grants in the next round of openings in 2027.”
Standards of Cover studies with our partner Manitou, Inc., deployment and station location analysis, grant support, accreditation support, and regional or statewide analyses. Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front by the person who built the platform.
Proud partner of Vision 20/20. These free profiles are part of the Discovery Data Hub.
