Live in hurricane/tornado zone

Survivor bias.

What are you some kind of pussy? Why are you so afraid of them?

They all want to die to save the planet
Duh

it won't protect from flooding but it would be very hard for the wind to blow it away.

Anyone who builds in a flood zone deserves to have all of their possessions and lives destroyed. Pure stupidity for "muh water front property".

What are you talking about?
Whats the point of having walls if everything you own is under water?
Just build a concrete house on pilars, you don't have to give up your lifestyle.

>Why don't these retards build a concrete house on top of pillars? It can't possibly be cheaper to build a paper thin wood house every 2 years instead of a proper house just one time.

They buy, insurance pays only minimum rebuilds, but does pay them, so the cycle continues: No insurance company is willing to take the short-term hit to mitigate the risk without the guarantee the policy-holder will continue their patronage.

It's a prisoner's dilemma.

They've all been moving to the mountain west to escape diversity

>every couple of years your entire neighborhood gets wiped out

You need to take a look at the New England housing stock. It's dreadful. A hurricane is a handy way to get some shit rebuilt.

wait for the water to subside and re live in the house and make use of plastic furniture so that it is water proof

No matter how much the insurance pays, its still a loss situation for you, even more so if its your only home.
Anyone with half a brain would invest 100k more one time instead of spending 50k every 2 years for the rest of your life.
The point is that when they rebuild, the rebuild the exact same shit, its retarded.

Whites. The Superior, most intelligent race.

Or just live a couple miles away from flood zones and you can spend the money on shit that isn't a complete waste of money.

So you can pinpoint in the map what zones are going to be hit by all the future hurricanes?

The big problem (I lived on hurricane eat coast for 20 years)... beach houses used to be disposed flop getaways. As the hurricanes knock the old ones down, they are replaced with McMansion rental houses. So as the years tick by the hurricanes become more expensive and tragic. Coastal areas make money off this racket so zero reason to change. They know the rebuilding will be fancy and expensive

And the construction companies own the houses? I don't see how the home owners benefit from this "scheme" at all.

Usually investment groups.

Yes I can. If you lack the mental capacity to look at the areas affected by floods/hurricanes then you deserve to have your life's work torn down in a flood. In the USA all of this info is available with a simple Google search. Living anywhere near water is one of the easiest indicators as to whether you're in a flood zone or not. This concept is not difficult to grasp you idiot. Don't live near water, don't get flooded. Don't live on the south eastern coast of the USA, don't get hit by hurricanes. How hard is this for you to understand?

It’s a fucking hurricane

Catastrophe relief/insurance/cleanup/ construction and a laundry list of other huge money makers are why this is allowed. First of all if people want to live out there, who gives a fuck let them, they know the risks.
The insurers normally wouldn't give insurance in such conditions but since they don't care and just charge a premium for being in higher risk areas why do they give a fuck they just make more money and raise the prices next time around on everyone in the area.
Plus their buddies in the construction industry make a killing when they have to come in a clean up and rebuild all the time, all paid for by insurance and or government contracts... Or rich people who just refuse to leave.
They all grease each other too.. Insurance companies have "direct repair" companies that they recommend and they are going to tell you to go with their buddies construction company..
I give zero fucks... I'm in this industry.. The people choose to live out there and in these conditions and they cry and scream for help all the time so I don't feel bad.

Florida fag here, you've got it all wrong. Florida houses are tough, most homes are made of concrete and cinderblock unlike most of the US. Even the shitty mass-produced homes that caused the 2008 housing crisis are built to withstand sustained hurricane-force winds.

The photos of absolute devastation you always see are usually from third world island shitholes or older neighborhoods that don't follow modern building codes.

This is true.. all structures are built with wind and seismic load parameters based on the location.
The houses and buildings cannot be built without specs that meet or exceed common loads.
Like you said though, older structures didn't have the same codes.

I don't think you understand how exceedingly rare it is for any particular house or neighborhood to get hit by a tornado or hurricane even in places where they seem frequent due to oversaturation of news coverage.

Americans can't build houses, they should call us or scandinavians

My city center was historical frequent the victim of heavy floodings. Buildings from this time are all elevated and you have to walk some stairs to actually enter the building. The first floors where used only as storage. And naturally the lowest floor has walls from local rocks while the upper floors are thick brick walls. But americans are idiots that will keep building housed made from cardboard at way too high prices for something that will need to be teared down anyway in 20-25 years.

I live on the Gulf Coast and have for 30 years. In my lifetime the only property damage I've suffered from a hurricane was a broken tree limb in 1995 during hurricane opal.

Lol Sure.

Gulf Coast safe coast.

Can someone point me towards a place that suffers from no weather complications or natural disasters? Pple are fucking retarded.

>People shouldn't live in an area with fertile soil and vast amounts of fields because of the small chance a tornado touches down 2 out of 4 seasons and fucks your home.
I bet you'd like America to become an import only nation too if it meant winning against the fucking air.

The government builds their expensive top secret stuff in areas with neutral weather

It's the mold. Humid + Cool Brick = Slime

i live in the frozen waste land of canada
but as i understand it. coastal people love living close to the sea and they understand the risks. it sucks if ur house gets washed away but they know what they got themselves in to.

Living rent free in Canadians brains makes me lol. You are both seething at your lucky more popular sibling.

Insurance = Brand New House every few years.

Cost of Insurance = Living in poverty the rest of the time.

Not to mention they are trailing close behind us in obesity. Canadians want to be us so bad its sickening.

So? A concrete house on pillars can come out completely unscathed from it.
And all these people making evil schemes convince the people to not build a proper house, how?
>you've got it all wrong. Florida houses are tough
Pic related is florida, last year.
Rarity is irrelevant, wherever you live, IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE, and your house should have been rebuilt to be hurricane proof.

>hurricane proof
Show me a home that's hurricane proof and I'll show you the average home owner being unable to afford it.

>brick
I said concrete, and you know you can use things to cover brick/concrete right?
Thats irrelevant, its still retarded to lose your entire material life and not rebuild to prevent it in the future.
Spending 50k more in your house is better both practically and economically than having to rebuild your entire material life every time disaster happens.

>having more money than you can afford would be better for everyone
No shit retard.
