Monthly rebuilds keep Wright County honest: 27/100 reflects the renewal environment carriers are pricing right now.
The 27/100 signal is only useful next to the rest: in Wright County it is layered with foreclosure, tax-lien and ownership data so a rising premium and a looming default can be read on the same parcel.

What lifts Wright County's reading is a FEMA hazard score of 52/100; NFIP flood-claim stress of 0/100 over three years; these are exactly the risks that widen premiums and thin the carrier pool.
Hazard exposure of 52/100 alongside 0/100 in flood-claim stress is the combination that turns Wright County owners into insurance-motivated sellers.
For a buyer, Wright County at 27/100 is a where-to-look signal: some share of owners are absorbing a coverage bill rising faster than planned, and a portion will sell rather than carry it.
With construction distress at 39/100, the cost to rebuild is elevated, which feeds directly into what carriers charge.
This monthly read runs on every U.S. county from FEMA, NFIP and carrier-pressure inputs, then joins to parcel-level foreclosure, lien and ownership records. That surfaces the coverage-squeezed owners ahead of the market.
