As climate change continues to influence weather patterns, not all areas of the U.S. will be equally exposed to natural hazard risks. While some locations may not be ideal choices for property investment in the future, there are other areas that data scientists have demonstrated will be sheltered from the damaging effects of natural catastrophes.
