Around here the renter can buy renter's insurance but not for flood insurance. That's the property owner's expense.

The Army Engineers has been involved with building up the beaches for hurricane protection around here. Local politics on any desirable plan has been going on for over 10 years. This week at a town meeting the AE has said my town is vulnerable to devastation without added protection. His rhetoric has become more demanding in the past 3 years. He's basically telling the local citizenry to Shiite or get off the pot. The last big hurricane was about a cat 2 in the 1930s where houses were lifted off their foundations. This place is an inlet waiting to happen. It's a numbers game and the numbers have become less favorable to survival of my real estate. A cat 4 and my town is history. The fun will be ordering evacuation of 8 million people from a concrete jungle called nyc & metro.

wtf.. nothing lasts forever.
