Well, how high up will they have to move? Does anyone know how high the new water level will be? Thanks.

If all polar ice melted the sea level would rise just about 250 feet worldwide. This is not high enough to cover all the world's land masses. Keep in mind much of the earth's dry land is more then 250 feet above sea level. To give you a better example of this, Denver CO is 5280 feet above sea level. So if you lived there, you would still be about a mile above sea level after the ice caps melted. ~A~

Approx. 311 ft. above present level. Impossible to say for sure because we don't know exact amount and density of all ice, and amount of land mass would be pulled in with it as it melted.

The island of Mt Everest would be a good place to be buying real estate

you would not need very much elevation. 1/2 mile will get you above the flood. you will need:
a place to live
a source of clean water
a place to get or produce food
a source of power
