I live in the Panhandle, on some of the most beautiful beaches I’m the world. Up here, we could give a fuck! But if you got a problem with that, well we could discuss that outside... lol. I manage a retail store (major cellphone) and these poor, sad people walk in to my store on vacation from Illinois, Michigan, Tennessee, any Carolina, New York, etc and ask... Do I have to wear a mask? 2 weeks to flatten the curve... Almost a year later? Duck them, they can EBOD! Do I have to wear a mask? I tell them, only if you’re robbing the place! This is truly one of the last bastions of true America! Our Governor could not care less, he spends his time pushing back; but even if he didn’t... NW Florida is one of the closest representations of America, real America left!
So, how risky is it living there. I live in a commie state and am considering moving. The wife is worried about alligators and hurricanes. How far inland do they go before risk of flood and winds subside? I'm not talking about minor damage just how far in does the real risk end? Im considering outside of Pensacola or Panama city
Alligators don't bother people really. Just don't enter their area and it will be ok. Sometimes, in neighborhoods close to wilderness or canals you might get a gator sighting but it really is not a big deal.
As far as hurricanes and flooding, Sandblock construction is the sturdiest but it might not be the most appealing. I'm in South Florida so the building code is super strict.
When looking to buy a house, visit the neighborhood on a rainy day. I know it's annoying but you will get a true representation of the flooding if any. Elevated or in a "hilly" area is best.
Yeah, alligators can’t run fast on land. In water, if you’re in a kayak or something, you don’t have to worry about it. Just don’t be swimming in alligator waters.
