Natural hazard risk in Essex County
FEMA rates the overall natural hazard risk in Essex County, where most Wenham agencies we list are located, as Relatively High compared with other U.S. counties. The hazards it rates highest:
- Coastal flooding
Storm surge and tidal flooding count as flood, which most home policies exclude. It needs a separate flood policy.
Flood insurance - Ice storm
- Inland flooding
Most home and renters policies do not cover flood damage. Flood cover is a separate policy, from the National Flood Insurance Program or a private insurer, and an NFIP policy usually starts 30 days after you buy it.
Flood insurance - Lightning
Fire and lightning are standard covered causes of loss on home policies.
Home insurance in Massachusetts - Hurricane
Home policies that cover wind often carry a separate hurricane deductible, set as a percentage of the home’s insured value (typically 1% to 5%). Flooding from the storm needs a flood policy.

Car insurance rules in Massachusetts
Massachusetts requires drivers to carry at least $25,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $50,000 per accident and $30,000 of property damage liability, often written 25/50/30. It also requires personal injury protection ($8,000) and uninsured motorist coverage ($25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident).
These are legal minimums, not a recommendation: a serious crash can cost far more, and anything above your limits is yours to pay.
