Flood

FEMA maps place 608 E Ave in Zone X, an area of minimal flood risk, within 100 ft of a high-risk flood zone.

Source: FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer, effective April 9, 2015 · OpenFEMA NFIP redacted claims and policies, as of September 2026

Flood Insurance Requirement	Not required lenders may require it
Flood Insurance Cost	Premium on File median of 27 policies

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 608 E 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.
