I Never Realized How Many People Live On The Coasts

515 Counties in the US border the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf of Mexico.

60% of the US Population now lives in a county bordering an ocean. That's about 170 Milllion people.

Kind of crazy that we've built up so much of our infrastructure in these risky locations when you think about it.

If something like the Asian Tsunami's hits the US east or west coast, you've got major population center cities that could be taken out in a flash. Just in South Florida alone we have 6 million people living next to the Atlantic Ocean in just 3 counties.

I'm uneasy even going to the beach now, when you look out and realize how much water is out there.
