What Would You Expect? Flood Risk and Washing Away Money in North Carolina

08/19/2022

What Would you Expect? examined possible insurance policies for houses in the flood plane across North Carolina. I looked at 4 houses across the different geographical regions of North Carolina and got flooding insurance quotes from each of them. I compared this data to the FEMA disaster relief payout to determine that buying flood insurance was worth it financially on all 4 properties I examined. This was the most recent math fair project I've done, and I got started very late and rushed a lot of it. The project was simpler than usual and I was less satisfied with the work I did. Likely as a result of my poor time management, I didn't place.
