BrazoriaCounty sits inside the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association’s 14-county coastal service area. TWIA writes wind and hail coverage for property there directly, and this file excludes TWIA’s losses entirely — so the 30.9% wind share above understates actual wind risk; it is not evidence the county is safer from wind than a county twice its size.

Shares are summed across the full 20192025 window, not a single year, so one severe season cannot make a county’s peril mix look permanent when it was not. The largest cause in Brazoria County over that window was water.

About this page

Source: Texas Department of Insurance, “Texas homeowners losses by county”, drawn from the Texas Statistical Plan for Residential Risks, 20192025. Excludes renters, condo and dwelling policies, and excludes all wind and hail written by the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association in its 14 coastal counties.

This page exists because Brazoria County averaged at least 5,000 policies in force over the window — enough for a seven-year ratio to mean something. TDI publishes county rows down to a handful of policies and divides by them anyway; below that floor a single large claim can swing the figure by an order of magnitude, so those counties are not given a page.

This is loss severity, not carrier behavior — there is no carrier column in this dataset. For which insurers draw the most confirmed complaints, and what those complaints were about, see the complaint index methodology.
