Rising Seas, Shifting Neighborhoods: Climate Change's Impact on Tampa Bay Housing

Rising Seas, Shifting Neighborhoods: Climate Change's Impact on Tampa Bay Housing

Few factors threaten to impact the makeup of Tampa Bay neighborhoods more than climate change. Whether it be fiercer hurricanes or more frequent sunny day flooding, climate change will force residents to reckon with the fact that their homes may sit in perilous places. Will this prompt people to abandon once-desirable neighborhoods that now are under threat? And how will this reshape the socioeconomic makeup of communities? In this free community conversation, we’ll examine how climate change is already reshaping Tampa Bay neighborhoods and how it could make them look drastically different from today.

This event is free and open to the public.
