What this page counts as Anona
We could not find an openly licensed official boundary for Anona, so this page uses a census-based area. For this page, Anona means the 2010 Census block groups whose center lies within 1.6 km (1.0 miles) of the U.S. Geological Survey (GNIS) map point for Anona (feature 277902) and inside the Largo city limits (U.S. Census Bureau), each block group going to the nearest of the places we cover. Every number below is for exactly those block groups (listed in “How these numbers were made”), so the edges are approximate and may include or leave out a few blocks people would call Anona.

Past claims do not predict future flooding, and a neighborhood figure cannot tell you about one building. Look up the exact address on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center and get flood insurance quotes before you sign a lease or a contract.

Flood zones street by street in Anona
The named streets in Anona, longest first, with how much of each street’s length inside Anona lies in FEMA’s high-risk flood zones (the Special Flood Hazard Area, zones A and V).

A street can cross several zones, so the zone at one address can differ from the street’s main zone: check the address above for that. 81 shorter streets are not listed.

Flood zones in Anona
Share of Anona’s mapped area (about 5.187 km²) in each FEMA flood zone, from FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL), Flood Hazard Zones and FIRM Panels. Mapped base flood elevations inside the neighborhood range from 8 to 10 feet. Effective date of the FIRM panel(s) covering it (12103C0113H, 12103C0114H): August 24, 2021.
| FEMA zone | Share of area |
|---|---|
| X (unshaded, minimal) | 68% |
| AE | 21% |
| VE | 6.3% |
| X (shaded, 0.2% annual chance) | 5.1% |
What the zones mean
- Zone AE (and A, AH, AO)
- High-risk: part of the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), the area FEMA maps as having a 1-percent chance of flooding in any given year (the “100-year” or base flood). AE areas have a mapped base flood elevation.
- Zone VE (and V)
- High-risk coastal areas, also in the SFHA, where the base flood is expected to bring additional hazards from storm waves.
- Zone X (shaded)
- Moderate hazard: between the limits of the 1-percent and the 0.2-percent-annual-chance (“500-year”) flood.
- Zone X (unshaded)
- Minimal hazard: outside the SFHA and higher than the 0.2-percent-annual-chance flood elevation. Minimal is not zero: flood claims are filed from X zones too.

How much is flood insurance in Anona?
The typical National Flood Insurance Program policy on single-family homes in Anona costs $722 a year: the median of 113 policies that started between August 1, 2025 and July 31, 2026. Half of them cost between $439 and $1,150. That is the full amount paid for the year, the premium plus FEMA’s fees and surcharges, and every one of these policies is priced under Risk Rating 2.0. A quote for one building can be far from this: its elevation, foundation, age, coverage and deductible all change the price. Private flood insurance is not included.

Hurricane evacuation zone
About 47% of the land in Anona’s property parcels is outside Pinellas County’s storm surge evacuation zones (Pinellas County Emergency Management, Parcel Evacuation (evacuation zone of each property parcel)).
| Zone | What the county says it means | Share of Anona’s parcel land |
|---|---|---|
| Zone A | see the county’s zone description | 22% |
| Zone B | see the county’s zone description | 5.9% |
| Zone C | see the county’s zone description | 5.1% |
| Zone D | see the county’s zone description | 12% |
| Zone E | see the county’s zone description | 8.5% |
| Mobile home parcels | parcels the county lists as mobile homes | 0.6% |
| Not in any zone | outside the county’s storm surge evacuation zones | 47% |
Pinellas County assigns evacuation zones parcel by parcel, so these shares are of the land in property parcels that carry a zone value, about 76% of Anona’s mapped area (streets and open water are not parcels; parcels the county leaves without any value, such as some beaches, parks and common land, about 0.1% of the area, are left out). Stacked condominium parcels are counted once.
Zones can split a street. Confirm the exact address with the county (Pinellas County: Know Your Zone) and follow official evacuation orders. Pinellas County offers this data “as is”, for reference only and not of survey precision.
Before you rent or buy in Anona
- Look up the exact address on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center; a neighborhood can mix high-risk and minimal-hazard zones.

How these numbers were made
Area: the census-based definition above, using U.S. Census Bureau TIGERweb, 2010 Census Block Groups and U.S. Geological Survey, Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) domestic names. Flood zone shares: the area polygon intersected with FEMA National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL), Flood Hazard Zones and FIRM Panels, area computed in an equal-area projection; retrieved October 30, 2026. Claims: OpenFEMA NFIP Redacted Claims v3 records for Pinellas County (county code 12103), dataset as of September 8, 2026, retrieved October 30, 2026. Claims are counted for exactly the block groups that make up the area. Block groups used: 121030252033, 121030252081, 121030252082, 121030252091, 121030252093, 121030252092. Neighboring pages can share a block group, so their counts can overlap. Paid totals add building, contents and Increased Cost of Compliance payments and are not adjusted for inflation; a claim whose FEMA record shows a negative payment (an adjustment) counts as zero. Evacuation zones: Pinellas County’s property parcels inside the polygon, each with the zone the county gives it, merged per zone in an equal-area projection (identical stacked parcels counted once); each share is of the land in those parcels, and shares below 0.1% are left out. See the methodology.
