If Houston were below sea level, it would need the same type levee system that NO has. Houston is very close to sea level but not below it

I have an uncle that lives 6-10 feet below flood stage of one of the rivers near Houston. There is a levee system on that river..

For some reason I was under the impression the deep ditches found in and around Houston were dug for flood control. I know we had a very deep ditch near our subdivision that usually was either dry or had a very small stream. (easily jumped across by a 10 year old)
