Living in Emerald Heights
Parcel numbers beginning 00-2S-22-0975 carry the Emerald Heights S/D name in the county's subdivision index, which files it under Township 2S, Range 22. The parcel layer returns 30 parcels, about 5 acres together, all carrying the legal name Emerald Heights S/D.
County year-built entries for the 26 single-family parcels run from 1996 to 2020. Lots A, B and C carry Emerald Coast Parkway addresses and commercial use labels: a financial building dated 2000, an office dated 2006 and a one-story store dated 2014. Lot 8 is vacant. Read them as county use labels only; they do not state what occupies or what condition any building is in today.
All 30 parcels have a county address record labeled Destin 32541: 27 on Trista Terrace Court, one of them the vacant lot, and three on Emerald Coast Parkway. Destin appears twice for these parcels, as the postal label and again as the incorporated city on the county's city-limits layer.
The shaded Zone X band, the 0.2 percent annual chance flood area, is what the county's FEMA map shows at the interior point of nine lots; the other 21 read plain Zone X. Overlaying whole outlines, four lots touch only plain Zone X, five touch only the shaded band and 21 cross the line between them, with the shaded share running from about 3 to about 92 percent of a lot in a sampling grid. Neither category is a FEMA special flood hazard area, but with most lots straddling, the map result for the specific lot is the one to read.
Twelve sold homes and no active ones came back when the August 20, 2026 search for Emerald Heights was limited to dwellings. Land and commercial parcels are excluded from that count, which reflects one date and not live inventory.

Whole-outline results split three ways: 21 lots span both categories, four lie entirely in plain Zone X and five entirely in the shaded band, the 0.2 percent annual chance area. Neither category is a FEMA special flood hazard area, so the individual lot's result is the one to read.
