The newer homes have roof straps, better windows, solar barriers, on demand water heaters, gas hookups for stove, dryer, and also for a grill if you want it. Some of the homes are poured concrete, some are concrete block and some are still wood framed with vinyl siding. I'm sure there are other improvements that have been made on recent homes but I don't know for sure. We went through Irma with no problems from the wind or driving rain.
