14. Orlando is a long way from Miami, and well inland.

And Disney is on the highest point in that area. The NOAA interactive sea level rise map goes up to 10’ rise. It indicates Disney won’t be underwater, though Miami will be completely submerged at that rise. Whoever scouted that land for Disney was worth every penny they were paid.

Edited to add a link to the map. It’s a fascinating tool to play with.
