How to (Accurately) Use Data Science to Forecast the Riskiest US Areas to Live Amid Climate Change

Natural catastrophes have long been of concern to the housing and property markets. However, as these events increase in severity and frequency, climate change data science is projecting that not all areas of the U.S. will be equally exposed to these risks in the future. Despite the popularity of some migration destinations with Americans, data analysis indicates that, depending on how dramatically current climate patterns change, many of these locations may not be ideal choices for property investment in the future. In this episode, host Maiclaire Bolton Smith sits down with CoreLogic Chief Scientist Howard Botts to discuss the riskiest places to live in the U.S. for natural disasters. In This Episode:3:08  – The climate has always been changing, so what is going on now that makes it so imperative to analyze and forecast natural hazard risk?6:16  – The IPCC’s new report.
