The southern culture cultivates roots as deep as our oak trees. I suggest anyone who thinks you can just move away to take trip to a place like New Orleans, you'll understand. We have a culture and hospitality and great food and strong family ties that people from Arizona just wouldn't understand until you feel it. On a seperate, financial note: My storms don't make people in Arizona pay more. It is regional based. After a storm hits Florida, everyone in the region pays more. Trust me, I pay MUCH higher premiums for living in the Gulf South, but you couldn't tear me away from here if you tried.

So my premiums pay for your repeated floodouts. This leaves me wondering why people insist on living in areas prone to floods, disastrous hurricanes, earthquakes, and wildfire. And why I should have to pay for that odd preference. Every time someone living on the Gulf Coast, on an earthquake fault, or in the middle of a parched forest gets zapped (again) by predictable natural forces, my own insurance goes up, even though I live a thousand miles away in a region where storm damage is rare and earthquakes and wildfires don't happen. Could it be the insurance company is trying to tell you something? Insurance payouts come from a pool accumulated by the premiums collected from EVERYONE who pays into the insurance company.
