According to a recent analysis by Climate Central, about 30 million Americans currently live in areas vulnerable to coastal flooding. That number is projected to climb significantly in the coming decades, with sea level rise acting as a primary driver. By 2050, approximately 2.5 million homes in the U.S. are projected to be at risk due to rising seas and land subsidence.
