So untrue. We were here in 2007 when a tornado came thru and it destroyed block homes just as easily as stick built homes, same is true in tornado alley, brick, block, stick built, no matter all are destroyed. Been here since 2001, so plenty of hurricanes have come thru too, no damage to either type homes.
You can always put up hardy plank instead of vinyl siding too. If sound is a concern pay more at build for a higher level of insulation, we did and it paid off after only one year. We added insulation in all walls and all ceilings including garage and lanai. Worth every penny. So, buy the look you like because you like that look. The rest is basically the same due to strict hurricane building codes.
