Flood risk in Stamford

Flood risk in Stamford

Flooding is not covered by a standard homeowners policy anywhere in the country — it is a separate policy. Whether you are required to carry it depends on the zone your address falls in.

FEMA's current mapping for the Stamford area shows Zone AE, Zone A, Zone VE alongside Zone X, which is the lower-risk designation.

Stamford is in FEMA's Community Rating System at Class 7, which earns residents 15% off flood insurance in the high-risk zones. Most homeowners have never heard of this and it applies automatically.
