The Town Around It
Whatever the address, these are Agawam's numbers. Each one opens the full record.
Flood, Town-wide
Mapped Flood Zones Present
Parts of this town are inside mapped special flood hazard areas, where flood insurance is required for most mortgages and building is regulated. Whether a specific property is inside one is a parcel-level question, check the address, not the town.
3 federal flood-insurance claims have been filed from this town since 2018 (most recent: 2023). Counted by the claim's self-reported city, so this can undercount. History, not a prediction.

The Cleanup Registry
Reported releases of oil or hazardous material, from the state's public registry. Being listed means a release was reported, not that it remains: the status letters run from active cleanup to closed. An empty list is a registry fact, not a clean bill of environmental health.
