Under the SSP5-8.5 stress test for 2085, the combined score is 49 of 100.

This cell's combined hazard score is 53.2; its strongest pillar is air quality at 91.4 and its weakest is coast at 0.7. Flood. Flood pillar 43.0, safer than 19% of land cells and level with 49%; modelled hundred-year river flood depth 0 m.

Wind pillar 61.2, safer than 22% of land cells and level with 78%; tropical storm passes nearby 0 storms/decade. Source: IBTrACS (vintage: v04r01). Earthquake. Earthquake pillar 8.5, safer than 7% of land cells and level with 2%; large earthquakes nearby since the start of the century before last 1.6 events/century.

Air quality pillar 91.4, safer than 91% of land cells; fine-particle air pollution 4.6 µg/m³. Source: Washington University SatPM2.5 (vintage: 2020-2024 annual mean). Coast. Coast pillar 0.7, safer than 1% of land cells; five-hundred-year tsunami run-up on the nearest coast 12.2 m. Source: Global Tsunami Model (vintage: 2017, earthquake sources only). Coverage: Tornado records cover the United States only, so this area has no tornado reading: a gap in the record, not a measured zero. This is a statistical summary of public hazard data, a research estimate, not advice about any property or decision.

Terra scores ~10 km hexagonal cells from public global datasets — it is area analysis, not a property assessment. Tornado history covers the United States only; flood hazard is modeled at ~1 km and ignores local defenses; hurricane records before 1966 and wildfire records before 2001 are incomplete. Where data is missing or coarse for your area, Terra says so instead of guessing.
