The Quinault Indian Nation, located about 150 miles west of Seattle, has experienced severe flooding because of sea-level rise over the past few years. "If I want to move, I'm assuming that I'm going to be responsible for a whole new house payment and a whole new home," Frenchman said. Now, the first phase of construction in the upper village is nearly complete. "The only thing that I'm going to miss is the view of the river," said Mail. Frenchman is hoping to relocate to the upper village, but doesn't know how she'll be able to afford a new home.
