When we retired to Florida we knew two things. First, we would not live in a coastal city. By mid-state winds have been greatly diminished.
Second, stucco homes can withstand hurricanes and tornadoes. We built stucco.
BTW hearing neighbors noise is seldom a complaint in The Villages. 1 or 2 retirees per household, plus pets.
Welcome to The Villages….youll love it here!
No, the comment is correctly stated, as I see what the poster was getting at.
