Flood

FEMA maps place 421 SE 12th St in Zone X, an area of minimal flood risk.

Source: FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, effective August 17, 2025 · OpenFEMA NFIP redacted claims and policies, as of September 2026

FEMA Flood Zone	Zone X minimal risk
Flood Insurance Requirement	Not required lenders may require it

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 421 SE 12th 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

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