Fisher County, TX: flood risk, in FEMA's own numbers
On FEMA's National Risk Index, Fisher County scores at the 2.7th percentile for flood hazard, rated "Very Low" — among the lowest flood hazard in the country. The hazard here is driven by inland rivers and flash flooding rather than the coast — FEMA's model puts a flood event here at about once every 1 years. That's a county-wide figure, not a per-address one — FEMA's parcel maps are a live lookup, not a bulk file.
Fisher County's flood-insurance compliance gap
FEMA hasn't published a residential structure count for Fisher County's mapped flood zone, so a reliable mandatory-compliance percentage can't be computed here — see the data quality guide for why this gap exists for roughly a quarter of US counties. Looking beyond the mandated zone, 0% of all residential structures in Fisher County carry flood coverage voluntarily or otherwise — relevant because most NFIP claims nationally come from outside the mapped SFHA.

Among the 3144 US counties FEMA scores for flood hazard, Fisher County ranks 3065 — 1 being the highest hazard nationally — and 2911 by population among all 3144 counties covered here, where 1 is the largest. Fisher County, Texas is home to about 3,665 people across 898.951 square miles of land.
