    We are getting tons more heavy rains in my region (which isn’t coastal and about 600 ft above sea level), and flooding, while still mostly relatively minor, has been happening considerably more often than it used to.

    It isn’t going to be just the coasts losing housing - a lot of people use basements for actual living space, even whole apartments, and with increased storm flooding that may not be safe in the future.

    Didn’t it start forcing people from their homes like 10 years ago? There’s a town in the southern US that’s completely under water now.
