The property at my Aunt's house in Pass Christian was about 22' or 23' above sea level. The house was on piers that were about 30". They still got 4' to 5' of floodwater in the house


My dad lives on the Jourdan River and was just finishing up a new house, 7 miles inland from the coast. He built around 24 feet above the normal water level, and still got a couple feet of water. Most houses around him (including his older house) which were built on the usual 8-10 foot stilts had water onto the roof.
