Las Vegas, Nevada Flood Zones

While the Las Vegas desert doesn't get much rain, most people wouldn't think there would be any threat of flooding. The truth of the matter is that when it rains for even as little as an hour, it creates havoc throughout the entire city.

Prior to purchasing a home in the Las Vegas Valley, it's important to ask if the property is situated in a flood zone. Accurate information from the City of Las Vegas or Clark County can be attained.

The city of Las Vegas Flood Control Section can determine which property is located within a designated flood hazard area within Las Vegas City limits. Residents are advised to access the Clark County Regional Flood Control District website www.ccrfcd.org and click the Flood Zone application to see if the property is within a designated flood hazard area.

For a verbal response, call the Flood Control Section at 229-6541. If you require a written determination, a fee of $ 20 is charged for each official Flood Zone Determination.
