  1. Table shows breakdown of future population growth rates for baseline populations, projected populations (integrated climate consequence), and the difference between the two. These rates are shown with different dichotomous group breaks based on the following definitions: if a block has higher than average proportion of inundated properties in the (1) 5, 20, or 100-year RPs, (2) 20-year RP, and (3) 5-year RP.
