Flood zones & evacuation
Two different things, measured by two different agencies. Evacuation zones are about storm surge and who leaves first. Flood zones are FEMA’s insurance rating, and they vary from home to home.
Zone E Collier
Called in the fifth wave, for stronger storms.
Zone X (shaded)
0.2% annual chance — moderate risk
The building is outside the Special Flood Hazard Area.
FEMA flood maps and Collier County Emergency Management. A revised Collier County flood map is in preparation and may change these zones.
Flood zones, evacuation, and insurance are explained in the Risk, Resilience & Insurance chapter of the 2027 Naples Buyer’s Guide.
