To be accurate, the ENTIRE COUNTRY is in “a flood zone”. The National Flood Insurance Plan publishes maps of every state and municipality. It ranks every location not just those in a high risk area. Depending on which zone they assign to a particular area will determine whether or not your property is considered at high risk, consequently requiring Flood Insurance if you have a mortgage. Without a mortgage you are not required to purchase flood insurance.
