The problem is people have gone and built entire cities in unsafe areas. If we were being sensible basically the entirety of Florida should not be occupied, the place is a disaster waiting to happen, or more accurately is a disaster that has already happened, but somehow nobody's learnt from it.
Generally speaking, every house in Florida didn't need to be replaced every five years.
Sounds like their problem? I know that sounds callous, and I'm not necessarily referring to the millions of Floridians who can't afford to relocate (ideally, we'd have a functioning government that could relocate them)... But how many times does your home need to be destroyed on a bi-yearly basis before you decide to move a couple hundred miles away?
I mean... yeah.
