Default metal roof !

Isn't it a bummer that metal roofs are used on rec centers and neighborhood postal/pool buildings, but we're required to have ugly shingle roofs that are mostly excellent at heating our attics?

The Villages would have been a modern and young looking place if metal had been used on all roofs for the past 30 years. Really nothing different here than in 90% of the humdrum cookie-cutter homes throughout the US.

Yeah, they're more expensive; but they last longer, more energy efficient, and better storm protection.
