There are a myriad factors to consider when you buy a home, but one element trumps both square footage and amenities: longevity. With the drastic increase in climate change disasters and weather events over the last few years, potential home buyers are focusing on finding a home that can weather what the next decade or more will bring. And while coastal cities tend to be at the highest risk for climate-related damage, you don't have to be landlocked or on top of a mountain to have the safe home of your dreams. Real estate experts at Zillow have recently decided to add climate change information and climate risk data on all home listings on the site moving forward. Climate change is a very broad category, so rather than a blanket statement or risk assessment, the data is being broken into five categories of climate-related factors that pose a significant danger to US communities: Air quality, flooding, fires, extreme wind, and extreme heat.
