Flood risk in Long Beach

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 Long Beach area shows Zone A, Zone AE, Zone VE, Zone AH, Zone OPEN WATER alongside Zone X, which is the lower-risk designation.

Long Beach is in FEMA's Community Rating System at Class 8, which earns residents 10% off flood insurance in the high-risk zones. Most homeowners have never heard of this and it applies automatically.
