After Hurricane Ian, readers rightly asked: Why is rebuilding in coastal Florida any different than rebuilding for poor Californians after wildfires?
The landscape? Scarred, just like the lives of far too many residents who have lost everything.
“A lot of people around the country are going through similar disasters,” Biden told reporters, comparing it to states in the West, including California, where wildfires have “burned everything right to the ground.” “The dream of living near the water is strong. I’m here and so I get it. I’m one of them,” Bill Spikowski, a planning consultant who lives in Fort Myers,“I don’t know if anybody’s willing to throw it away right now. I think it’s gonna hang on as long as it can. And then one day, if it can’t, it can’t.”
A sign is posted outside the rubble of a home destroyed by the Dixie fire in Greenville, Calif., on Sept. 24. These same trends largely hold true even in urban Florida. As a couple of native Ohioans who spent plenty of summer vacations in the Sunshine State, we can attest to the high number of retirees and Midwestern families looking to escape the cold for six months out of the year, putting their limited dollars into timeshares and condos.Before Hurricane Ian blew through, it was where the wealthy owned homes alongside the working class.
