Ever though it wasn't required, I had flood insurance until they put in the double levees a few years ago.
Now I feel pretty safe. Or as safe as one CAN feel with climate change driven weather. Historical trends aren't as accurate as they used to be.
However, we're also downstream from Downtown Sac. If it gets REALLY REALLY bad, Army Corp will likely intentionally blow the levee way north of Sac metro and flood farmland (and a few poor farmers 😢) to relieve the pressure, like they did to save Cairo, Illinois in 2011. Not a great option (especially for the farmers), but as Spock would say, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."
