Special Flood Hazard Area — 1% annual chance of flooding. Federal flood insurance is required on most mortgages.

Data sources: Flood zone and base flood elevation come from FEMA\u2019s National Flood Hazard Layer. Property elevation is sampled from a single point on the parcel using the USGS National Map elevation service \u2014 actual elevations across a single property can vary by several feet higher or lower than the figure shown. Use these numbers as a starting reference and do your own due diligence (a professional survey or elevation certificate) before relying on them for any financial, insurance, or construction decision.

Zone AE typically means lenders require flood insurance — factor it into the monthly numbers below.
