I’m not likely to buy this game, but I’m still more likely to buy it than willingly visit Florida (I’ll only go if I get sent to the concentration camp)

    I agree with you about most of that but people will continue to live in Florida and likely it will become even more corpo. Hopefully our building standards shift since home insurance availability is becoming a crisis.

      It won’t be an intentional exodus; just an economically inevitable one. The cost for even the corpos won’t outweigh the benefits, with the only property that’ll be financed is the property that is more temporary.

        People are stubborn. I anticipate a more RV and condominium centric development. Many of these investments will be sure to fail after 50 years but by then the decision makers will be retired. But I expect the livability of Florida to remain on par with other areas until 2070. We are going to see an increase in natural hazards all over the world. With these we will hopefully see advancements in material science and construction. People are stubborn and adversity breeds progress.
