Finally, look for an area with underground utilities (I think Weston falls into this category). They're less prone to outages in storms and service is restored faster. Hope this helps, and good luck in South Florida!




I live in Rotonda, it was started about 30 years ago and isn't built out yet. Our utilities are underground, just a few feeder lines are above ground. After Charley, I thought for sure we'd be in the dark for days. Our power was on at 5:30 am the next morning. Amazing!
