ZIP 85541 in context

This page is built from the Gila County data pack: risk samples on a grid across the county, of which 32 fell inside ZIP 85541. Scores are informational decision support — not a substitute for official evacuation orders, a fire-agency hazard determination, or an insurer's underwriting judgement, and never a measurement of any individual property.
