Flood risk in Irvine

Flooding is not covered by a standard homeowners policy anywhere in the country — it is a separate policy. Whether you are required to carry it depends on the zone your address falls in.

FEMA's current mapping for the Irvine area shows Zone AE, Zone A, Zone AH alongside Zone X, which is the lower-risk designation.

Irvine is in FEMA's Community Rating System at Class 9, which earns residents 05% off flood insurance in the high-risk zones. Most homeowners have never heard of this and it applies automatically.
