What Accokeek homeowners deal with
Accokeek is a rural community of 13,226 residents in Prince George's County. Its homes are newer and almost all owner-occupied. Census figures show 30% were built before 1980, against 54% for the county. Leaks here come from water heaters, washer hoses and lines in crawl spaces or unfinished basements.
Rain is the main outside risk. Prince George's County logged 62 days with flash flood or flood reports from 2016 to 2025. FEMA's National Risk Index puts Accokeek's yearly inland flood loss at $46 per $100,000 of building value, above the county's 42. Heavy rain falls on 13 days a year, and runoff from wooded lots can reach a walk-out basement. Storm water is Category 3, so flood damage restoration cuts out the soaked drywall and carpet.
Winters are milder than the county's, with 80 nights a year at or below 32 degrees against 93. FEMA's records show 0.9% of county homes carry federal flood insurance. Accokeek calls go to the restoration company that serves the Silver Spring area.

The first hour in Accokeek
