FEMA has released a data visualization map that shows the NFIP flood claims across the united states since 1980. This interactive tool lets you sort the flood insurance claim in every US state and territory by year.
Historical flooding is one of several indicators of flood risk. It isn’t the only factor to use when determining your property’s flood risk. NFIP Claims are only one component to help determine your risk level, based on only those who participate in the NFIP. It is not a full-scale risk assessment of your county, and especially not your specific home.
- Where it rains, it can flood.
- Changing weather patterns can impact flooding vulnerability of your property.
It’s always good to talk to a flood insurance agent to evaluate the full flood risk of your property.
