The four tiers on this page are the ones a Satelife address report prints — Low below 25, Moderate to 50, High to 75, Very High above it. Our grid samples the county about every 2.3 km, and this ZIP is small enough to sit between two of those points — so the number above is the closest reading to it, not a reading of it. Either way, two houses in this ZIP can sit in different tiers, and the only way to know which is to score the parcel.

ZIP 95959 in context

This page is built from the Sierra County data pack: risk samples on a grid across the county, of which none fell inside ZIP 95959 — the reading above is the closest sampled point, 11.4 km from its centre. 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.

What does your parcel look like, layer by layer?

A ZIP median is the middle of a neighbourhood. An address-level Satelife report shows where in that spread your property actually sits — PDF, per-layer score, and a prioritized mitigation plan.
