What Type of Areas Flood
Just because your home isn't located in high risk, coastal or tidal area, you still have a relatively high chance of flood. Almost 25 percent of all flooding happens in areas that are determined to be low to moderate risk areas. Flooding can happen anywhere. You may not be out of the water just by living in a low risk area. The benefit to living in a low risk area is that your flood insurance premiums will be rated relatively low compared to other homes with high risk ratings. You will also have comfort in knowing that if you maintain flood insurance, while in a low risk area, the amount that you pay for flood insurance will be somewhat protected itself. In the event that the area that you live is rezoned you will be able to maintain your California flood insurance policy on a preferred tier rating platform. Although you may see in minimal increase in premium it would be considerably less than purchasing a policy after that map changes take effect.
