[quote:Anonymous Coward 75369973:MV8zNjkzODk0XzY2Mjg4MjA0X0NGMDZDOUZD] Flooding is mostly an issue with the Houston storm. I don't hear much about flooding from FL or PR. That's more wind damage. PR is not a bad place to build. It's an expensive place to live, all considered, because everything from the mainland has to be shipped there. If we have to support poor economically unproductive people, we should be doing that on the mainland where it costs us less. Living on such an island is a luxury, and rebuilding it in place is also a luxury. We shouldn't pay whatever it takes. We should invite those who cannot stay there to leave and be helped on the mainland, clear the debt thru bankruptcy, and then without any further encouragement those strong enough will be attracted back by their own interest and ideas, to build a new and much better Puerto Rico with their own money and energy, the same way things are built everywhere else.

Original Message
Those looking for remote areas to live need to consider federal lands in mostly western states and Conservation Easements a government takeover in eastern states that block you from using your land to meet your requirements.
In either case, the land is not yours you are simply paying to be bullied by the government and the land can be taken away at any whim contrived by the government.
Choose wisely after much research it took us several years to find the perfect land to build our retirement home.
