If you live in a flood-prone area, do you plan to stay, or are you trying to move out?

We're outgrowing our apartment, and I'm so torn about finding a new place... I've got 100 reasons to stay in the same neighborhood, and only one reason to leave. We're in a flood zone. Usually it's no big deal, but when Sandy happened people were picking up the pieces for months. If we find a place that should last us at least a decade, or longer... who knows what could happen. We wouldn't really run the risk of drowning (it's all high rise buildings here), but we might lose all our savings if we buy a place and can't sell it.

I guess I'm curious if others have dealt with this, and whether you stayed put or moved. No one around here seems to be worried at all. I don't know if I'm being too dramatic, or if it's just hard for people to imagine dramatic things disrupting their daily life, so they don't think about it.
