This report describes FEMA’s 2024 National Household Survey on Disaster Preparedness. The survey found that most people have taken steps to prepare for disasters, but many still feel unprepared or face barriers like cost and not knowing what to do. People worry most about health, paying bills, and disasters affecting their families. Many expect help from family or the government after a disaster. Having supplies is common, but few can last more than two weeks without water or power. Responses indicated that awareness of preparedness information is high, but confidence in being ready varies by age, income, education, and other factors.
