Turning the Trinity numbers into coverage choices
- There is no TWIA option in Trinity County, so the homeowners carrier handles wind and hail, and its deductible for those perils can differ from the all-other-perils deductible.
- NFIP flood policies are available in Trinity, a participating community. The effective FEMA flood map for the community is from January 2027. NFIP data counts 40 residential flood policies in Trinity County, about 1 for every 192 homes. Since 2016, 30 NFIP flood claims have come from Trinity County. Flood needs its own policy, and buying one right before a storm will not help because of the usual 30-day wait.
- 1984 is the median year built for housing units in Trinity. The split is roughly 40% pre-1980 construction versus 21% built from 2000 on. Original water heaters and supply lines in homes of this age are a frequent source of water claims, so replacing them can make a home easier to insure.
