It depends on how much people are willing to spend to deal with flooding (also how easy it is to deal with it - e.g. in coastal Louisiana it is difficult to find any solid ground to anchor flood walls).
Flood control, which the Dutch are quite good at, raises the costs for the RE that is protected.
