People in Puerto Rico probably go to the highlands to avoid being flooded. There are no highlands in Florida.
evacuate to when there is a hurricane? No where, that is where, but the people in Florida run like babies from the WEAKENED storm

I am expecting that level seas tonight. They are already building rapidly. I am in the Caribbean. If NJ had as much advanced notice for Sandy as Florida did for Irma I am sure a lot more people would have left. Always better to err on the side of caution I am sure you would agree.
Actually the percentage of people that need to evacuate is dependent on various factors, one of the most important is the land height over sea level. Miami is 3 feet over sea level, again Sandy would have eliminated Miami. This is why Florida does need to be evacuated PERMANENTLY. The rebuilding from hurricane Andrew in 1992 is still not complete and never will be at this rate. People are the problem, not hurricanes
But does the government and the national taxpayer have the responsibility to keep rebuilding homes that are damaged year after year and never really dry out and settle as all new homes do, before being blown or washed away? The answer is no, and in fact rebuilding these homes is only creating more heartache down the road, people deserve better, there are places that humans do not belong.
Were any of the homes insured for flood? I doubt it as there are places that are uninsurable, which is why the government steps in to give grants and low cost loans, that they never gave me.......................................Florida should be condemned for human habitation, give it back to the mosquitos and gators
I cannot answer that. I do not know. It is not up to government nor the taxpayer to give grants or low cost loans for insurance. There are enough people that want to live in the flood zones and other places to form something like a co-op to buy bulk insurance from insurance companies. That kind of buying power would give them some negotiating power with them.
You can not buy flood insurance in flood zones, you can buy general home insurance that will not cover flood and wind damage. The government does not give loans for insurance, they give grants and very low cost fema loans to rebuild these homes, so that in the near future, they can. give grants and very low cost fema loans to rebuild these homes, so that in the near future, they can. give grants and very low cost fema loans to rebuild these homes, so that in the near future, they can. give grants and very low cost fema loans to rebuild these homes, so that in the near future, they can.
This ends when the last hurricane roars thru, which is never. At some point throwing in the towel is the right thing
