Houston is a perfect example of this: all the new land floods much more frequently. Reconciling this with insurance risks and climate changes means duping a lot of poor and clueless people to move into flood plains and then blame the NWS when they drown.
This is also why Utah Senator Mike Lee is so clueless about public land sale proposals. The dude's logic was to sell publicly owned lands in the forests to developers so they could build new homes in areas infested with wildlife, at the greatest risk of burning down due to fire danger, and with none of the infrastructure for water supplies, emergency services, and forest management to maintain a buffer from certain and far more frequent risks of burning to death.
