The Province's map is somewhat less pessimistic than the city's 50 and 100 year maps. The place I just bought is fine according to the province's map, but the surrounding areas are subject to local flooding (light blue) on the 50 year map and inundation (dark blue) on the 100 year map. However, my house itself isn't coloured in - not sure what that means if everything around it is inundated. Maybe it's slightly elevated I guess?
Thanks. Looks like i'd be alright at 5th avenue and 20th street and that vicinity.
