Flood

FEMA maps place 170 21st St in Zone X, an area of minimal flood risk, though there have been 2 flood claims nearby since 1995.

Source: FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, effective October 12, 2026 · OpenFEMA NFIP redacted claims and policies, as of September 2026

Nearby Flood Claims	2 (1995–1998)
Claims Outside the SFHA	2 of 2

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 170 21st St has no burnable land within ember reach, so its wildfire risk is not rated.

Source: USDA Forest Service Wildfire Risk to Communities (2nd edition), as of 2024

Wildfire Risk	Not rated no burnable land within ember reach

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