Answer
A
People live in homes built along the shore.
B
There is a lack of high-rise buildings.
C
A lack of funds makes it difficult to evacuate.
D
Farm fields stretch across the area.

Low-income communities may have fewer financial resources for transportation, temporary housing, and other needs during an evacuation. That can make it harder to leave a dangerous area before a disaster, so the correct choice is “A lack of funds makes it difficult to evacuate.”
