“The methodologies that the current insurance rates are based on… don’t really consider what’s going forward with climate change,” @FirstStreetFdn's @edward_j_kearns says. “We’re all waiting to see what kind of reform FEMA will bring, and we’re very supportive of that reform.”

The annual flood damage cost estimates refer to how much, on average, a property-owner could expect to pay in repair costs from flood damage to their building in a given year.
