Comment on Let's run it back

FEMA would definitely move you.

Not enough FEMA to go around.
They also will just move you up to a higher part of your yard if that’s all that’s needed. I had a relative that contracted for FEMA that would regularly order buildings be replaced to locations that would avoid flooding and other hazards even if it cost more.
