More people are moving into disaster-prone areas than moving out, Redfin reported.
Almost half of recently moved Americans think climate risks may impact home prices.
The figure for areas at risk of wildfires was 446,000, up 51%, and areas vulnerable to extreme heat saw 629,000 more people come in than leave, a 17% rise.
Such regions have ample housing availability, but are more exposed to dangers such as hurricanes and wildfires.
According to a previous report that also observed the migration trend to disaster-prone areas, climate-fueled risks are expected to tick up, forcing further movement.
