Recorded flood claims in Commerce

Fewer than 10 insured flood claims were recorded in and around Commerce from 1978 to Sep 2026. FEMA counts claims on buildings with NFIP flood insurance, so land without an insured building never shows here.

Counted in the 5 census block groups that lie mostly inside Commerce, so the edges may reach past the town line.
