Change in the number of buildings at flood risk in the U.S. 2022-2052, by state

Over the next 30 years, the number of buildings facing risk of flood damage in the United States is expected to increase, at least partially as a result of climate change and its effects. In Virginia, the number of office, retail, and multi-unit residential buildings at risk is expected to grow by 26.5 percent between 2022 and 2052, while in Florida, this figure is expected to grow by 21.8 percent. In 2022, there were at least half a million buildings at risk of flood damage in the U.S.

在未来三十年内，预计美国面临洪水损害风险的建筑数量将有所增加，这至少部分归因于气候变化及其影响。在弗吉尼亚州，预计2022年至2052年间，办公、零售和多层住宅建筑面临风险的数量将增长26.5%，而在佛罗里达州，这一数字预计将增长21.8%。2022年，美国至少有五十万座建筑面临洪水损害的风险。
