Check whether your community participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). You can still get flood insurance if you live in a low-risk area. The insurance will cost less if you live in a low-risk area.
Find an insurance agent in Boulder County. The NFIP is the only flood-insurance provider, but the government does not sell it. Buy the insurance through an insurance agent. The NFIP sets the rates. If you need help finding a provider go to FloodSmart.gov/flood-insurance-provider
If your insurance agent doesn’t know about the NFIP, call the help center at 877-336-2627.
