Water damage in Broward County
Broward is low, flat, and canal-cut, and much of it sits only a few feet above sea level. In extreme rain events the storm drains and canals fill faster than water can leave, and in king-tide season saltwater can push up through street drains.
Broward County is part of the Southeast Florida region, with Fort Lauderdale as its county seat and water in every direction, including the New River, the Intracoastal Waterway, the Hillsboro Canal, and the Atlantic Ocean.
