What to Filter For
1. FEMA flood zone
The northeast Hampton Roads coast has more AE/VE exposure than other areas. Always pull the FEMA flood map for the specific address.
2. Bay/ocean elevation
Even properties technically in flood zone X may sit at low elevation, raising insurance pricing and resale risk during major storm events.
3. School quality
Norfolk and Virginia Beach school zones near JEB vary widely. Verify on VDOE’s state report card.
