How this level is set

RealData scores each of Bangkok’s 50 khet from 0 to 5 against BMA Drainage Department records, JICA flood-frequency reports and 2011 great flood inundation mapping. The layer is district-level, not coordinate-level, and is reviewed once a year after the BMA monsoon report.

Bang Rak flood risk — frequently asked questions

Does Bang Rak flood in Bangkok?▾

Bang Rak is one of the driest khet in Bangkok. Comparatively high ground with BMA drainage that held through the 2011 great flood; street water clears within hours of a heavy storm.

Was Bang Rak affected by the 2011 Bangkok flood?▾

Largely no. Bang Rak stayed outside the worst of the 2011 inundation, protected by elevation and the King’s Dyke barrier line. Its current level reflects that.

Is it safe to buy a condo in Bang Rak?▾

Flood level is one input, not a verdict. Check the building itself: ground-floor height above the soi, whether parking is at grade, and what the juristic office says about past water. The Bang Rak score tells you the baseline you are starting from.
