I thought I mentioned that in the post. We have cousins in Spring Hill.
Homes are beautiful, but living there is risky. The lady who sent us the "news" originally moved to DAYTONA BEACH which is on the east coast of Florida, then they bought a house in DELAND......they are now on west coast near Spring Hill. She knew that our original plans were to retire to Florida; guess he hasn't mentioned to her that we will now be SNOW BIRDS......after coming to the conclusion/decision to retain our northern home. We don't even like our own humidity so realize we will not be able to tolerate the summers in Fl. Soon we will have cool crisp autumn weather, so for our particular circumstances, four seasons is best.....being a snow bird is best.........for us. There are many many snowbirds that are welcomed back to The Villages & other regions of Fl.

Other cousins of both of us live in Spring Hill. Huge development close to Tampa Bay/St. Pete area. This one is NOT the first sinkhole. They are all over the area. I'm glad we did our research as we are getting too old for that type of "excitement".
I can't imagine anything like that happening on our street.
At least Vermont doesn't have catastrophic ground collapse.
The last time our state had roads wash away was when Hurricane Irene hit really bad up the middle of our state, up the spine of the Green Mountains, a few years ago. Actually, I think it was a tropical storm here. Very rare.

Why is living there risky?
Sink holes are all over Florida!
Since there are
no catastrophic incidents that
ever happen in Vermont, I surely would consider
never moving away to a place where bad things happen on a regular basis.
