Tillamook, OR: what USGS's seismic model says

Tillamook carries Seismic Design Category D under USGS's ASCE 7-16 model. High seismic hazard - this is the category most of coastal California, the Pacific Northwest, and other active fault regions fall into. Code mandates significant seismic detailing and restricts irregular structural configurations. This is the category the Brace + Bolt scope (cripple-wall bracing, foundation bolting) is built for. That puts Tillamook in the 93th percentile nationally for seismic hazard - higher than 93% of the 4,875 US cities USGS was checked against here.

Where Tillamook sits in Oregon

The raw figures: peak ground acceleration 0.598g, short-period spectral response 1.214g, 1-second spectral response 0.631g. Among 80 Oregon cities in this dataset, Tillamook ranks 10 for seismic hazard, the 89th percentile within the state. About 5,157 people live in Tillamook, Oregon.

What a retrofit costs in Tillamook

Outside California, no state-level retrofit grant equivalent to Brace + Bolt could be found for Oregon. A typical retrofit still runs $5,000-$10,000 nationally, about $7,000 for a common single-family job.

Insuring against this, not just retrofitting

Outside California, earthquake coverage is typically sold as an endorsement added to a standard homeowners policy, not a separate product - worth asking about directly when getting a home-insurance quote for a Tillamook address.
