Historical Resilience: Florida Residents' Response to Devastating Hurricanes

Reported 25 days ago

Despite the damaging effects of recent hurricanes, history shows that many Floridians choose to stay rather than leave the state. A significant increase in Florida's population over the past two decades indicates that hurricanes have not deterred newcomers. While some areas see short-term disruptions and declines in residents post-hurricane, studies suggest that home prices often increase in affected areas due to reduced supply, and recovery seems rapid. Factors influencing recovery include insurance coverage and building resilience through stricter codes.
