Climate Safety Score
5.5Moderate climate risk — address-specific
Key Facts
- Climate Safety
- Medium
- Flood
- Cooee faces a moderate risk of flooding due to its proximity to waterways and low-lying areas. Climate change is expected to increase rainfall intensity, potentially worsening flood events.
- Bushfire
- The risk of bushfires in Cooee is moderate, with some areas bordering bushland. Drier conditions and higher temperatures are projected to increase bushfire frequency and intensity.
- Heat
- Cooee is likely to experience more frequent and intense heatwaves. This poses a risk to vulnerable populations, such as the elderly and those with pre-existing health conditions.
- Storm
- Moderate storm risk — westerly wind storms and occasional severe weather

Climate Safety Analysis
Cooee in Tasmania has an overall climate safety rating of Medium. This multi-hazard assessment combines flood, bushfire, heat, coastal, and storm risk data with climate projections to 2050 from CSIRO and the Bureau of Meteorology.
Key factors affecting Cooee's climate safety include flood, coastal. Each hazard is assessed independently and combined for an overall picture. Australia has warmed by approximately 1.5 °C since 1910, with flow-on effects to fire weather, extreme rainfall, and heatwave frequency.
Climate safety for property in Cooee is not uniform — it varies by address. Factors such as elevation, distance to waterways, proximity to bushland, and local drainage all influence actual risk at a specific property. Two nearby properties can have materially different risk profiles.
For a complete property-specific climate safety report for Cooee including address-level hazard mapping, insurance outlook, and adaptation recommendations, use the ClimateNest full analysis tool.
ClimateNest assesses hazards at the address rather than the suburb, because exposure varies street by street within Cooee. An address-level check is what tells you about a specific property before you buy, sell or insure it.
