Lived 90% of my life in Fla. and always had a CBS (cement block stucco) home until now in TV. I can tell you one less than obvious difference, it is not as sound proof. We can hear our neighbors talking through the walls of both houses. Just got my electric bill though and it is lower than I've ever got in a CBS home in this kind of heat, ($122.) Is a frame home better insulated ?
