Scan the Block · for insurance

The hazard file, from the maps that decide the premium.

FEMA's flood layer with the panel it came off, the USGS record of what has actually shaken nearby, the code-enforcement cases the city holds open, and the police and permit record on the block — one address, each exposure from the body that publishes it, none of them blended into a score.

The questions it answers

What code-enforcement cases does the city hold open here?
How many cases has the city closed on this parcel, and when?
What is the construction type and year?
Is it in a federal flood zone, and what has shaken nearby?
Is there unpermitted work?
Can I use this to price a policy?

The sections that earn their keep

The underwriting extractEvery COPE-shaped fact the report holds — construction, occupancy, protection, exposure — as one flat CSV or JSON per address, beside every report, built to be keyed into a rating system rather than read.

FEMA flood zoneZone, SFHA standing, panel and effective date — the fields the application actually asks for.

Earthquakes on record nearbyWhat has actually happened, from the USGS catalog. The state's shaking scenarios and fault-zone map are not yet read for this city, and are absent rather than empty.

Police reports on the blockLAPD incident reports within the radius by year and category, against what an average Los Angeles area of the same size records — published to the hundredth block, so counted as a box the width of the radius, and said so.

Code enforcement on this parcelEvery LADBS case the city holds open against the parcel, by type, and how many it has closed and when. No case is reported as no case, never as compliance.

Permits on the blocks around itWhat LADBS has issued nearby since 2020, by year and type, against the citywide rate.

The EPA's compliance recordEvery site around the address the agency holds a record for, and how many are out of compliance today, formally acted against, or have paid a penalty — environmental exposure on the block, from the regulator rather than from a vendor's model.

Mapped wetlandsWhether the federal inventory maps a wetland where the address stands, counted apart from what is merely nearby and apart from open water, which is the bay and not a constraint on the parcel.

Every figure names its dataset and date, every report is receipted in an audit log, and nothing is blended into a score — documentation shaped to survive a market-conduct exam, not just to price a risk.

Nothing here needs a compliance read. The report contains no scores, grades or rankings — no safety rating, no school grade, no neighborhood letter. Those are the classic proxies for what the Fair Housing Act protects, and this product refuses them by design: you get counts, comparisons and sources. It names no person, and it is not a consumer report.
