Eventually there won't be any insurer's left in those areas and most people will just abandon them. Of course the federal government will keep giving them flood insurance to rebuild over and over.
oh hey, all those east coasters can sell their worthless flooded houses to the west coast coasters selling their worthless burnt down houses fleeing the fires since no insurers will cover anywhere.
