What areas are at the highest risk of flooding?

People that reside in areas largely covered in non-absorbent surfaces like concrete and pavement are at risk of flooding despite storm drains. The lack of absorbent ground causes build-up and flash flooding. If farm lands are a surprising answer, remember that anywhere with a large water source is dangerous because the water can spill over "typical" boundaries causing flooding.
