How the Stone Score works

Experimental estimated housing-exposure index, not a damage rating. Each housing unit is assigned to its highest mapped size band using Census block points; housing units are not a count of individual buildings.

  • 1 stone: qualifying local exposure below the higher tiers.
  • 2 stones: 100+ units at 1.5″+, or 1,000+ at 1″+.
  • 3 stones: 1,000+ units at 1.5″+, or 500+ at 2″+.
  • 4 stones: 5,000+ units at 1.5″+, or 2,000+ at 2″+.
  • 5 stones: 5,000+ units at 2″+.

Local pages require 100+ units at 1″+, or 25+ at 1.5″+. The highest qualifying tier wins. Unrated means insufficient qualifying exposure or missing data—not no damage.
