Is there a PropertyRadar alternative for Florida that shows flood zones?
You may not need one for the flood zone itself: PropertyRadar's help centre lists FEMA's flood zone code and flood risk as search fields, and its feature page names flood zones on the map. What its pages do not state is storm surge, evacuation zones or wetlands. For those beside the flood zone, Map Views shows all four on each Florida parcel for $47 a month, and Regrid's $10 Pro plan lists FEMA flood zones and wetlands nationwide.
What PropertyRadar's own pages say about flood
Its criteria glossary defines two flood fields, both from FEMA: the flood zone code and a flood risk. Its property and owner data page lists flood zones among the boundaries you can see on the map. So a PropertyRadar search can already keep or drop parcels by flood zone, anywhere it covers. Its pages say nothing either way about Florida's storm surge zones, hurricane evacuation zones or mapped wetlands.
Tools whose pages name a flood layer, for a Florida parcel
| PropertyRadar | MapWise | Regrid | Map Views | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | Solo $119 a month, $99 paid yearly | Professional $89 a month, $75 paid yearly | Pro $10 a month or $100 a year | $47 a month |
| Flood, on its pages | FEMA flood zone code and flood risk | FEMA flood zones and map panels, flood zone reports | FEMA Flood Hazard layer, on Pro | FEMA zone, the share of the lot in each zone, and whether it is in the 100-year floodplain |
| Filter a search by flood | Yes | Not stated | Not stated | Yes: in or outside the 100-year floodplain |
| Storm surge, evacuation zone | Not stated | Not stated | Not stated | Yes, from the state's evacuation study |
| Wetlands | Not stated | Yes | Yes, on Pro | Yes, with the share of the lot |
| Coverage | Nationwide | Florida | Nationwide | Florida |
"Not stated" means the vendor's public pages do not say, either way: the tool may have it.
A flood search on one county: Lee
Lee County is a fair test: a long coast, tidal rivers and many owners who live elsewhere. On 1 November 2026 our map held its 561,559 parcels:
| Lee County, measured 1 November 2026 | Parcels |
|---|---|
| With a FEMA flood zone mapped under them | 463,684 |
| In the 100-year floodplain | 142,428 |
| In the floodplain, owner mails from outside Florida | 34,767 |
| In the floodplain, homesteaded | 58,071 |
To run it yourself:
- Open Search and pick Lee as the county.
- Under Flood and wetlands, set 100-year floodplain (FEMA) to In it. Add a cap on wetland percent if you want dry ground.
- Under Owner, tick Owner outside Florida, or set homestead to Homesteaded.
- Open a result. The report lists the flood zone, how the lot splits between zones, the storm surge category, the evacuation zone and the wetlands' share of the lot.
- Turn on the flood, surge and evacuation layers to see where the lines cross the lot, then write a note on it.
Where Map Views stops
- No base flood elevation and no risk score. We show FEMA's zone and the state's surge zone, not an elevation or a premium.
- Parcels with no zone under them. In Lee, 97,875 parcels carry no mapped zone on our map; read those on FEMA's site.
- Florida only, one property at a time. No contact data, no foreclosure or distress lists, no mailing campaigns, and exports of at most 1,000 properties a day. It works in a phone's browser; there is no app.
If you work several states, or you want lists and owner contact data with the flood field, PropertyRadar already covers it. If you want the flood zone read next to surge, evacuation and wetlands on Florida parcels, that is what our report is built around. For the check on one address, see flood zone and surge tools compared; for what each zone letter means, Florida flood zones AE, X and VE.
FEMA's effective flood map is the authority for a flood zone: check it on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center before a purchase or a policy rests on it.
