Natural Hazard Loss Profile
Expected annual loss across the 18 natural hazards in FEMA's National Risk Index. Life safety is expressed in fatality-equivalents, combining expected deaths and injuries. Property loss counts building damage only, not agriculture.
These figures cover natural hazards only. Structure fire, EMS, and motor vehicle incidents are not in the National Risk Index, so this is not an all-cause life safety measure. For Crittenden County, the largest single contributor is Earthquake, 60% of the life-safety total.
Crittenden County carries an expected 1 natural hazard fatality-equivalents and $21.4M in building loss per year. Rank chips compare the 75 Arkansas counties. Nationally, Crittenden County ranks 492nd of 3,222 U.S. counties for life-safety loss, 419th for life safety per 100k residents, 841st for property loss, and 1016th for property loss per resident. Computed from census tract data covering every resident, independent of fire department boundaries.

NRI Rating is from FEMA's National Risk Index, which measures community risk across 18 natural hazards using expected annual losses, social vulnerability, and community resilience. Life-Safety Loss uses FEMA's Value of Statistical Life ($13.7M per expected fatality) to estimate annual risk to human life.
Department boundaries and station counts are self-reported through NERIS Public and may not reflect current service areas. Population and Life-Safety Loss reflect each department's full jurisdiction. County-level risk metrics are computed from census tract data and are not affected by boundary accuracy. See full methodology.
