Rincón Municipio, Puerto Rico: hazard risk
FEMA rates Rincón Municipio's overall risk unrated. Its storm record holds 58 events since 1950.
FEMA's rating for each hazard
These are FEMA's county-wide model ratings and this county's storm record. They are not an assessment of any property, address or building, and not insurance advice: a property's risk depends on its own elevation, construction and location.
FEMA gives each hazard its own rating, and a rating does not follow the score from one hazard to the next: a hazard with a higher score can carry a lower rating than another. The table sorts by FEMA's rating, then by score (0 to 100, the county against every other county for that hazard).

| Coastal Flooding | not rated | $5K | |
| Earthquake | not rated | $4.6M | |

| Hurricane | not rated | $6.5M | |
