What is your point?
If we get hit, insurance rates will most likely skyrocket Outsiders will no longer consider the Villages a safe place to live. Home sales may suffer. Some residents may leave because they lost their homes and have no desire to stay.

The question was about sustainability. Each time there is a hurricane in the Gulf, I ask myself, what if? I cross my fingers and hope for the best. A hurricane would cause property damage but it will be the side effects that may last for years. Not trying to scare anyone. It is just something I believe could ruin the Villages. Hopefully, that day will never come.
