What do you mean specifically? Coastal/surge flood zone?
This.

When evacuation measures start being posted we’re always in the 1st area that needs to leave. Idk how that’s determined but it can’t have anything to do with actual flooding, as it never floods here. 200 yards down the street it has, but not here.


This area slopes pretty significantly down towards the water. I’m honesty not trying be naive but it seems we’re just thrown in with the lower areas that do flood right around here. There’s just nowhere for water to pool or rush through in any dangerous way.

Yeah I see what you're saying. Google earth shows you're at about elevation 17 or 18. And my expertise lies more with rainfall/ riverine than surge so I can't really comment more than that.
