Weather and noise risks in Huron Township
According to flood maps from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, there is a risk of flooding along the Huron River. While the locale is near the airport, Silvenis says plane noise is not a factor as “the airport has changed some of their flight paths and engines, so you're not getting as much noise as you used to .” A train line runs through New Boston, causing sound.
