Sooo... I'm speaking to 50% of people? That's my point. They were warned.

Yes you do and yes they did... There's no such thing as not a flood zone(especially in La.).

Zones B,C and X are preferred zones and aren't required to by mortgagee's are still flood zones.

In fact 1/3 of all flood claims happen in preferred zones.

This myth that X is a magical non-flood is what got people in trouble in '16

Which has nothing to do with this program. FEMA bailed your arse out, not the flood insurance program, unless you bought flood insurance in a non flood zone.

Everyone is in a flood zone. Around 25-30% of flood claims every year come from low risk zones like you're talking about.

Low risk =/= no risk

Those areas should have been in flood zones. Too much politics in the program and not enough common sense.
