Yep - rampant mold and many who will not be able to afford remediation. That widespread of damage presents a problem not only for the structural integrity of some homes, but in an overwhelming need for contractors. It will take months for people to get their homes repaired, and in the meantime they have nowhere to go, and it is summer in South Florida. All that water will not only create mold problems but attract insects. You already have a situation were there is a shortage of affordable rentals - so renters be stuck where they are, and homeowners are already having trouble paying the insurance premiums. It is likely those without mortgages in many cases have opted to go without flood insurance, not because they don't realize its importance, but because when they to choose between food and paying for utilites vs. paying insurance premiums, you already know insurance becomes a secondary concern until something happens. I miss my friends, but I am grateful that I left South Florida. It is the playground for the rich only now, and soon there will be nobody to make their $15 lattes, if the service workers have to commute from 2 hours inland, due to the unaffordability of the area.

I’ve lived in a formerly flooded house that flooded again in hurricane Ian. I will say that we had a lot of trouble breathing in there before we replaced a ton of stuff like the air conditioning, bathrooms replaced, etc. I could breathe perfectly fine after the entire house was remediated, gutted out and rebuilt the right way after Ian! We moved though, never doing that again! And if it does happen again I’m gone, I’m completely done. I’ll live with family up north. I can’t do that again. That was so traumatizing. All of this is truly something you just cannot grasp until you go through it yourself.

I feel the worst for those who rent. Landlords do NOT remediate mold after a flood EVER and if they do, it shocks everyone. I’ve lived it first hand. My neighbors next door rent and didn’t get remediated and are now sick (their house did flood and was not remediated previously as well!). I’ve been trying to help them as much as possible & they’re working on buying their own home elsewhere. It’s so sad to see them stuck. 😞

Many of us were born here and have never been able to save up enough to leave, or have family that keeps us tied down. Also, there was a time when the cost of living here was very low and as the housing crisis worsened elsewhere, it made sense to move south.

I agree, and grew weary of people's judgements during the peak of the pandemic. I was born in South Florida and know the Hallandale area very well - I used to live just north of it in the Young Circle area. When I left in 2005, rents were going up, but there still were affordable studios. I know someone still iving in the same complex I used to rent within at one time, and the rents are going up $100 a year. The waiting list is years long for subsidized senior housing, and despite the increases in her complex, others are increasing their rents even more.. She has been in the area most of her life and all of her friends are there, as well as her job. I well understand the point you are making.
