Pulaski County, GA flood risk explained
Flood hazard in Pulaski County sits at the 20.7th national percentile, among the lowest flood hazard in the country; driven by inland rivers and flash flooding rather than the coast — FEMA's model puts a flood event here at about once every 2 years. County-wide, not parcel-specific: FEMA's real flood-zone map is queried live, never shipped as a download.
Pulaski County's flood-insurance compliance gap
Out of 176 homes FEMA counts inside Pulaski County's mapped flood zone, 21 carry the flood policy federal law requires there — 11.9% compliance, short of full coverage. Looking beyond the mandated zone, 0.6% of all residential structures in Pulaski County carry flood coverage voluntarily or otherwise — relevant because most NFIP claims nationally come from outside the mapped SFHA.
