Reading the Frisco data for water damage
Frisco is one of the fastest-growing Dallas–Fort Worth suburbs tracked here: 236,955 people (2025 estimate), up 18.2% since 2020[3]. The city spans 68.6 square miles at 3,453 residents per square mile (the 7th densest) and spans Collin County and Denton County, served by ZIP codes 75035, 75033, 75034, 75036[4].
Frisco mixes 47% of homes built since 2010 and 2% before 1980[2]: new supply lines and water heaters in one house, aging pipe and original valves in the next — so where a leak starts depends a lot on the address.
4 ZIP codes cover Frisco — 75035 (35% of the city's land), 75033 (31% of the city's land), 75034 (23% of the city's land), 75036 (9% of the city's land)[7].
The closest tracked neighbours are Plano (8.4 mi SE), Allen (9.2 mi E) and McKinney (9.7 mi E)[4].
32 flood-insurance claims have come from Frisco-area ZIP codes (75035, 75033, 75034, 75036) since 1981, and $860,033 has been paid on them (about $39,092 per paid claim)[1]. 2015 was the worst year, with 6 claims. That is the fewest of the 15 Dallas–Fort Worth–area suburbs we cover; for comparison, Plano (114), Allen (56), and McKinney (57). Most jobs here start inside the house. Of the 32 claims rated in a flood zone, 8 were in FEMA's high-risk areas (zones A or V) and 24 outside them (zones B, C or X)[1][8] — flooding here is not only a high-risk-zone problem.
By month of loss, Frisco-area flood claims cluster in April (4), May (8), and June (5) — 17 of 32 dated claims[1].
Within 10 miles of central Frisco, weather observers filed 17 flood, flash-flood or heavy-rain reports in 2016–2025 (16 flash floods)[5]. Countywide: 2 flood declarations since 2000, latest Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Tornadoes, and Flooding (DR-4781, 2024)[6]. Nearby: Plano (36), Allen (27), and McKinney (11).
2% of Frisco's 80,353 housing units predate 1980[2] — the lowest share of the 15 Dallas–Fort Worth–area suburbs we cover (Plano (18%), Allen (7%), and McKinney (8%)). In newer houses, check fittings, washer hoses and the water-heater pan first — and any builder warranty.
66% of Frisco households own their home[2], so most claims and rebuilds here are coordinated by the owner.
Among the 15 suburbs tracked here, Frisco stands out for the fewest NFIP flood claims (32)[1], the lowest pre-1980 housing share (2%)[2], the newest housing (by median year built) (2009)[2], and the highest median home value ($642,100)[2].
