FEMA declarations in 2005

In 2005, FEMA issued 4,693 county-level disaster declarations across 50 states and 3,077 counties. The most frequent declaration type was hurricane. Combined tracked FEMA obligations for the year total $29.4B.

The states most affected in 2005 were Texas (764 declarations), Louisiana (260), and Indiana (231). Beyond hurricane, the year also saw significant severe storm activity.

Year pages aggregate county-level declarations by calendar year. A single weather event — a hurricane season, a drought — can generate hundreds of county declarations across multiple states. The county pages linked from the timeline above show the per-county detail: aid breakdown, program authorizations, and how each event fits into the county's longer disaster history.
