Does PO6 flood?

Yes — parts of the PO6 district carry real flood risk: 12 of its 73 at-risk postcodes reach the Environment Agency's High likelihood band. The PO6 postcode district covers Drayton and Farlington, Paulsgrove, Cosham, close to Havant, Denmead, Gosport, and surrounding villages in parts of Hampshire and West Sussex.

73 postcodes in the PO6 district appear in the Environment Agency's rivers-and-sea flood-risk dataset — worst bands: 12 high, 3 medium, 11 low, 47 very low. A postcode not listed here has no properties in any recorded risk band (which is good news, but never proof it cannot flood).
