      Your comment doesnt make sense. Thats like saying "Because you live in California where its prone to earthquakes, Americans don't have sympathy for you because you chose to live there." If no one were to live in those areas, then you and many others would want to develop the land for residential or commercial use.

      If weather affected low-risk lands were the only ones sought out by people and the population of the United States tried to fit inside these more "preferable" low-risk environments, what would that do to the price of real-estate in those lands and better yet, your safe community? Demand, scarcity, and supply, but not limited to thereof, will determine home value. Maybe we were able to have the prices of the homes we've got into due to the fact people are living spread out amongst different areas of land.

      Use a little common sense. No way was that a 500,000 home. What happened to North Carolina was tragic and unexpected but in these cases you chose to move to a high risk area. Much of Florida is not meant for permanent habitation or stable enough to support the homes and info structures they keep putting in. Not all that many years ago, Florida was just a vacation destination mostly for snow birds looking for a break from the cold. Seniors moved there because they were promised they could live there and not have to pay taxes on their retirement. Sand is constantly shifting. Waters always rise and surge in storms. Move inland and drive to the beaches but stop rebuilding and repeating the same bad choices, expecting a different outcome. Come on, I know humans are more intelligent than that.

Now, he’s talking about selling for whatever he can get and moving out of state.

    From 1960:
    The worst flood in years hit eight counties in Central Florida following a three-day storm that dumped as much as 25 inches of rain in some parts of the state. The area around Tampa suffered the most and 8,000 persons have had to flee their homes inundated by the swollen Hillsborough River. People in the fashionable Forest Hills section have faced three floods in a little over a year and many complained because the city of Tampa failed to solve their drainage problems after a flood last summer. Many are still paying on loans for house repairs they had to make. It
    will take several days before all evacuated families can return home.
