Number of deaths and injured caused by natural disasters annually per 10,000 population
Total number of human lives lost, people injured or affected in urban and peri-urban areas (persons per year, by sex, hazard type and category (intensive/extensive) (UNSDSN, London, 2014)

It does not appear like data is disaggregated at this level, but as the data is recorded by disaster event, in which case, it is localised, it could be tracked back to a certain area.
