If you ever go down there, take the time to travel over the hill to the west of town. Hidden away where tourists can't see are the homes of the less fortunate and the folks that work in service jobs. It's no joke. In town the buildings are built of concrete and are very stable. Not so in the outskirts. That being said, I don't think anyone is going to get hit hard at all this time. They will probably have some parts of the highway wash out.

I've never lived in a town where the poor weren't hidden away somewhere. And yes, their houses are usually not solid rocks.

My point was that leave it to the lefty MSM scribes to slip in some class envy references in their articles EVERY opportunity they have.

I'll bet the writer almost hopes the tourists he refers to in that sneering second paragraph get the hurricane up their pipes because he thinks they deserve it for splashing around in cavernous pools in glitzy hotels.
