Flood

FEMA maps place 15919 Emerald Ave in Zone X, an area of minimal flood risk, though there have been 13 flood claims nearby since 1981.

Source: FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, effective February 11, 2026 · OpenFEMA NFIP redacted claims and policies, as of September 2026

Claims Outside the SFHA	2 of 13
Most Recent Claim	Aug 2007 · Severe Storms And Flooding

Values are read at the parcel center point; flood claims are located to the census block group, not this parcel; lenders make the official flood determination.

Wildfire

The area around 15919 Emerald Ave has no burnable land within ember reach, so its wildfire risk is not rated.

Values cover an area roughly 900 ft across, not the parcel itself; insurers use their own ratings.
