Great question! Both areas get about the same rainfall each year, with Dallas being slightly more rainy. As Dallas natives, we know the areas a bit more and can attest that flooding is a problem but not one that is known to be catastrophic. Usually it affects traffic and roadways more than anything and can cause slowdowns on some roads especially in the springtime. This May has already been one of the rainiest by far. San Antonio is has more hilly terrain and elevation. This can be a cause for more flooding that can certainly be more risky to homeowners. We always advise doing more research on the specific neighborhoods you’re interested in and understanding the area’s flood risk. You can use this website to learn more: msc.fema.gov/portal/home
Because of the elevation changes, it can actually be more prone to flooding than Dallas in some areas. It really depends on the parts that you are looking into. Some areas in San Antonio can be affected by flash flooding because of the terrain. Austin is a whole other beast, but I’d say more similar to San Antonio in that the terrain and bodies of water that can cause flash flooding in some areas that can get dangerous. Keep in mind though that it’s dependent on neighborhood. If you’re close to big bodies of water than can overflow in heavy rain, then it may be more of a concern versus neighborhoods built outside of those potential flood zones.
@@LiveInTexasThank you!, It’ll be AWESOME if you do a video about what neighborhoods in those 3 cities are prone to flooding and which ones aren’t. Like Lake Highlands in Dallas or North Dallas, etc. I just subscribed 😊
