Flood overlay

This shows whether the Mooroolbark SA2 intersects an official Victorian government hazard overlay, and the share of the SA2 area it covers. It is the published overlay extent — not a risk rating, hazard score, or insurance assessment, and we compute none. A single property inside the SA2 may or may not be affected. Not financial or insurance advice — check the current planning scheme and your insurer for any specific address.
