Though it may seem people are less likely to want to live in Florida following a massive hurricane, time has demonstrated more people move into Florida than out. Approximately one-third of current Florida residents are native to the state and the patterns of moving in and out of hurricane-prone regions have had not made long-lasting adjustments. These areas appear to attract the same high number of new residents prior to the passing of a major hurricane.
During the immediate three months following Hurricane Andrew, home prices in popular cities such as Miami and Fort Lauderdale increased. The reconstruction efforts which decreased the unemployment rate increased the existing home sales to 31% from the third quarter and 14.1 percent over the course of the year. Although the market experienced decreases during the recession, Florida remains among the most resilient housing markets in the country.
