This map shows the estimated annualized earthquake losses (AEL) for states in the United States and California counties. This study estimates California’s statewide loss exceeds $9.6 billion per year (in 2023 dollars), representing 65% of the nation’s total. The Los Angeles area alone accounts for 23%, while the Los Angeles and San Francisco Bay Areas combined contribute nearly 35% of the national total. |

<div style='text-align:justify;'>Map data were provided by Dr. Jaiswal (U.S Geological Survey, USGS), leading author of the joint FEMA-USGS report “Hazus Estimated Annualized Earthquake Losses for the United States”. The report provides nationwide and state-by-state estimates of AELs based on the latest census and building stock data, as well as USGS earthquake hazard information.</div><div style='text-align:justify;'><br /></div><div style='text-align:justify;'>The AELs presented here are the estimated long-term value of earthquake losses to the general building stock in any single year in a specified geographic area (e.g., state, county, metropolitan area). They are economic losses from earthquake shaking-related building damage. They do not include losses from ground-failure effects such as landslide, liquefaction, surface fault rupture, or losses due to other secondary effects such as fires following earthquakes due to lack of a nationally consistent database. Building economic losses are direct economic losses including structural damage, non-structural damage, and content damage; as well as building damage-related economic losses, such as inventory loss, relocation cost, loss of proprietors’ income, and rental income loss. These do not include losses associated with business interruption. Replacement costs and loss valuations are based on 2023 dollars.</div> |
