Important flood facts you should know:
- Ninety percent of all natural disasters in the U.S. involve flooding.

- Federal disaster assistance is only available if the President declares a federal disaster area. And then federal disaster assistance aid must be repaid.
- In a high-risk area, your home is two times more likely to be damaged by flood than by fire.
- An inch of water can cause an estimated $21,000 in damages to a 2,000-foot1 property.
- Hurricanes, winter storms and snowmelt are common, but often overlooked, causes of flooding.
- The average flood claim paid over the last 10 years amounted to approximately $48,000.
