Houma sits in Terrebonne Parish bayou country surrounded by a network of tidal waterways including Bayou Terrebonne and Bayou Black, making it one of Louisiana's most flood-vulnerable inland cities. The area's low elevation — much of it near sea level — combined with ongoing coastal land subsidence means stormwater has nowhere to drain after heavy rain events. Atlantic and Gulf hurricanes regularly make landfall within 100 miles, bringing catastrophic storm surge and rainfall.
