What the record says

About 68% of claims here were on properties rated outside high-risk zones (zones X, B or C). A lower-risk zone on the map is not a guarantee.

Losses are spread across many events; the largest, Hurricane Harvey, accounts for 31% of claims.

Flooding here is recent: 88 claims (42%) were in the last 10 years.

The most commonly recorded cause is heavy rain or snowmelt collecting faster than it drains, which can happen far from any river or coast.
