I just got off the phone with a friend in Lakewood Ranch. If you blow up the latest hurricane path map, the "line" goes exactly through his home. That said, Lakewood Ranch is about 10-12 miles inland.
If you're in the path of a hurricane, it pays to be inland, have a recently constructed home and quality drainage system. The Villages has all 3.
I wouldn't want to be living within a couple of miles of the coast, from Ft Myers all the way north to Tarpon Springs. Longboat Key to Clearwater would be very scary place to be this week.
