Naples Manor, Florida, sits almost directly on the coast of Florida, which significantly increases its risk of severe impacts from hurricanes. Considering its topographic characteristics, the town sits only at an elevation of approximately three meters above sea level, which makes it highly susceptible to storm surge inundation, one of the most dangerous aspects of hurricanes. The low elevation and coastal proximity of Naples Manor magnify the risks of flooding, especially during high tide or in occurrence with a hurricane's storm surge. Its flat topography also impedes efficient runoff of rainwater, promoting flooding from heavy rainfall associated with hurricanes.

Over the past 30 years, Naples Manor has faced a notable number of major hurricanes. The most significant was Hurricane Irma in 2017, which hit Naples directly as a Category 3 hurricane, causing devastating flooding, wind damage, and power outages. Moreover, in 2005, Hurricane Wilma battered the region with severe conditions bringing about substantial flooding and wind damage. Acknowledging these, residents and leaders of Naples Manor should have plans in place for evacuating or sheltering in place, protecting properties from wind and water damage, as well as recovery plans post-hurricane. Damage to infrastructure, interruption of services, and challenges to public health are among the effects that must be planned for since their frequency of occurrence seems persistent in this area.
