Inland ZIP: predominantly Zone X, with Zone AE along the canal system
Wellington sits well inland. Published flood guidance for the village describes most residential areas as Zone X (unshaded, minimal hazard), with Special Flood Hazard Area (Zone AE) following canals and low-lying pockets. Palm Beach County's FEMA maps were updated effective December 20, 2024, so older zone printouts may be stale — any specific lot still needs an address-level determination.
