Default Why do people live in Florida?

A massive hurricane seems to hit Florida every few years. I really don't
understand why people continue to live there. Don't they get tired of having
to evacuate every summer, and having their houses destroyed? Someone explain
this to me.

I guess for the same reason people in Malibu and inland Southern CA continue to
live and re-build after their homes are ruined by storms, floods, mud slides
and fires year after year.

It's explained by warm weather, nice beaches, and senility. Also cheap
hurricane insurance. The Bible also explains it. Something about fools
building their homes on sand.

Great weather, cheap living and the hottest broads on the planet.

Earthquakes and tornados don't hit the same neighborhoods every few years.
