I am a Southern California Native. (Lived here all my life) and I am in the Yacht business. I just accepted a job offer from a Yacht Manufacturer located in Miami. I want to move to the Broward County area. I have been told that Pembroke Pines is a good area to live and am considering renting then buying a home possibly there.
My question is, I have never experienced a Hurricane, just earthquakes. I don't know much about the safer areas or storm damage prone (wind/flood) areas in or near Pembroke Pines. I am coming to Florida within a week to look for a place to live before I move there on or around July 1 2006.
I am hoping some of you experienced people can school me a bit so I have more knowledge when looking for a place.
