If you haven't witnessed the destruction here, you really should not correct those who have. The rise in insurance here will continue in part due to the many natural disasters our community has experienced. The roof scam here? Well, that's another story!

Reread the topic. It is about Farmers leaving Florida. Would you continue to insure a state that has been consumed by natural disasters? I believe your Tulsa story is off the topic. So sorry that it happened, but the topic is about Florida.

I hope your home here remains as safe as you believe. For those of us who have lived here for 20+ years, we KNOW that may not be the case. I pray Mother Nature is finished with our community. It is not pleasant to watch neighbors losing their homes.
Did YOU see the picture I posted? That was what a REAL tornado does, in a place where Farmers still services -- at rates 1/4 of what you pay in Florida.

Farmers didn't pull out of Oklahoma after an F5 tornado ripped an 45 mile swath of Oklahoma to the ground -- and then ripped the roofs off countless other homes in ANOTHER 80 mile swath. So why would Farmers leave The Villages -- where the worst disaster that has ever happened was that neighborhood in your picture, where a few people lost some shingles? Good lord, you could take that picture in Oklahoma every other week, every single spring!

You seriously think it's "off topic" for me to point out the LIES these insurance companies are telling you about why they're leaving? Wow, I guess I didn't realize this was supposed to be a pity party for poor little Farmers Insurance, who couldn't make a go of it gouging Villagers so they could sell insurance at a discount to beach dwellers!
