刚刚查到休斯顿的洪水问题,很多被淹过的地方只要房子没有struction 问题,就会被标为 nonflood zone

"If the property flooded, but the structure didn’t flood, the listing agent too often markets the property in big bold letters “DID NOT FLOOD.”"

我觉得休斯顿很奇怪,洪水多,平房还特别多。。。

美国elevation最低的海边地区是New Orleans,除了Death Valley

还有不少州沿海地区在海平面

有个印象,上海很低,比NYC还低

以前这样说佛罗里达,还不是照样涨?

佛州有严格的建房code

房子要建到高于海平面多少尺,抗飓风要达到每小时多少迈......

等明天
你的意思是房价照涨,不管海水怎么涨

当时应该有影响。让很多人退却了。后来的新富不在乎。反正人就是那么几十年
