I'm as interested in the houses that survived. How and why?
Updated building codes.

I have pictures of my camp. Built 2015. The structure looks fine in pics but we haven’t been inside. I am expecting ceiling and wall damage but who knows. The structure has OSB/plywood on every wall and ceiling inside and the outside is OSB and hardi.
We are past the store towards the east end.

Right after Katrina, to build a camp you had to go through extreme measures for FEMA. I’m guessing it is still the same. At the time, I was thinking it was way overboard. Now I’m glad a cussed ever single clip I had to put on that camp after seeing the destruction around us.

There probably isn't a place on earth built to handle a hurricane as well as new grand isle camps. They have to be bomb proof to get insurance on them

If you have to live in a house on stilts, why bother?
I don’t know why, but seeing these kinds of messages over and over again are starting to bug me. It’s like people are trying to blame the people who live there for the storm. Yes, they all greatly understand the risks of living someplace, or having a camp someplace where stilts are required.
Some people have lived here their entire lives, or spent a large majority of their free time out there, and that place and other places like it, is a place that a lot of people hold dearly. It’s a special place to a lot of people.
Sorry if I am being too sensitive, as I’m sure you didn’t mean it in the way that I am taking it, but I’m mainly pointing to the people who live out west or in New York who keep saying that kind of shite on social media.
