No coastal exposure; general inland flood risk applies

Montclair sits well inland from the Jersey Shore, with no direct coastal-storm-surge exposure of its own. New Jersey's broader statewide inland-flood-risk profile still applies generally -- confirm current FEMA flood-zone status directly, particularly near local waterways like the Third River.

New Jersey's statewide insurance range applies, likely toward the higher end

No Montclair-specific premium data distinct from the statewide New Jersey range ($1,401-$2,030/year) was found this pass. Montclair's genuinely high home values likely push actual replacement-cost coverage requirements -- and therefore real premiums -- toward the higher end of that range for many properties.
