If I had a choice, I would not live in a coastal area with hurricanes. So pretty much all the FL coast is out, as well as TX and LA (and MS and AL). I might be willing to live inland. Maybe. No place is perfectly safe, of course. But if you live in Miami Beach or a barrier island off Tampa, seems like you're just rolling the dice and hoping it comes up box cars, and any other roll you lose.

Pretty much!

It wasn’t the main reason, but it was certainly one of the reasons I moved from Galveston in 2003.

When I moved, my house sat 10 feet 7 inches above sea level. Now it’s 9 feet 11 inches above sea level.
