- The U.S. counties with the largest share of homes facing high heat, drought, fire, flood and storm risk saw their populations grow from 2016-2020 due to migration.

- The counties with the smallest share of homes facing climate risk largely saw their populations decline.

- Relative affordability may be playing a role: Counties where many homes face high heat risk are less expensive on average than counties where few homes face high heat risk.

America’s disaster-prone areas are becoming more populous as new residents move in, according to a new Redfin analysis.

The 50 U.S. counties with the largest share of homes facing high heat risk saw their populations increase by an average of 4.7% from 2016 through 2020 due to positive net migration. Meanwhile, the 50 counties with the largest percentage of homes facing high drought, fire, flood and storm risk experienced average population growth of 3.5%, 3%, 1.9% and 0.4%, respectively, due to positive net migration.

Positive net migration means more people moved in than out, while negative net migration means more people moved out than in. The term “migration” includes both domestic and international migrants, and should not be confused with “immigration,” which refers only to people moving in from a different country.
