Why doesn’t California build fireproof houses in Florida build hurricane proof houses?

Of course it will cost a lot more money upfront. But it will save untold amounts of money every time a firestorm or hurricane hits their area.

I'm sure Gavin Newsom is really anxious to build homes in Florida for Ron.

Wouldn't fireproof mean built out of cement? I've heard you can't build cement houses in earthquake prone places.

Hurricane proof houses would further negate the rapidly diminishing low cost of relocating to FL.

I could live in a cinder-block house. They need to build those again.
