2024 Community Resilience Estimates and Ranking Tables by Natural Hazard Risk [ [link removed] ]

*JAN. 29, 2026* — The U.S. Census Bureau today released the 2024 Community Resilience Estimates (CRE), which highlight areas in the United States most socially vulnerable to the impacts from natural disasters.

Social vulnerability constitutes various adverse factors that can compound the negative impact of a disaster and that inhibit community resilience. These can be demographic, socioeconomic, or health characteristics of individuals and households in the community. The estimates and rankings are useful for local planners, policymakers, public health officials, disaster management professionals, and community stakeholders who plan mitigation and recovery strategies in the event of a disaster.

New for this release are the CRE social vulnerability rankings for every county and census tract in the United States by natural hazard type. In addition, estimates for metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas are available for the first time.
