re: In fight over a 2,000-lot subdivision, Livingston settles lawsuit with developer

I think flood insurance will be the great deciding factor for this. Looking at the flood map, most of DS, watson etc are in AE zones, the X zones are mostly filled up.
Insurance companies are already doubling home insurance and are backing out of entire states flood insurance-wise. with the already inflated house prices, mortgage rates and living at the whims of insurance companies, who's affording these new houses? we were looking at a house in watson, nice house etc, but just flood insurance was going to add $150-200 a month to the note. frick that.
