  • Flood plains are flood prone areas. 
  • Massive damage can occur during floods in flood plains. 
  • Homes, automobiles, buildings, historical monuments, graves, sewer systems, bridges and countless other infrastructure can be destroyed. 
  • Road ways often suffer. High flooding often claims the lives of drowning victims. 
  • In flood plains during floods there will be lack of clean drinking water which causes illness and epidemics to spread. 
  • Thus there are a lot of dangers of living on the flood plains.
