Statista estimates have created a hypothetical forecast of the potential cost to residential real estate due to rising sea-levels if no further action is taken to mitigate risks across Europe. The estimate, which takes 2020 estimates into account for total populations, populations below locked-in seas levels, the number of residential buildings in at-risk areas and the average size and cost of real estate by city. The scenario measures lower and upper estimates for global average temperature changes by 2100.
Far more can be learnt on the potential costs to real estate in Europe through sea-level rises in our report. As well as giving easy to digest figures, the report also covers a global perspective and how each city is combating the growing threat of coastal and river flooding due to climate change.
Estimated cost of rising sea-levels to residential real estate in select European coastal cities in 2020, by temperature increase
(in billion euros)
Top 18 Urban agglomeration populations below locked-in sea level from different warming amounts, for agglomerations with total populations exceeding one million. Total populations estimated from LandScan data tabulated within urban area boundaries from Natural Earth, and may vary from listed populations based on administrative or other boundaries.
