Why Gilchrist County roofs take a beating
Florida lives with hurricane and named-storm risk from June through November — the highest tropical exposure in the country — plus near-daily summer thunderstorm wind and spin-up tornadoes. Wind-driven rain intrusion is the defining claim. Gilchrist County's roughly 19,587 residents, concentrated around Trenton, are most exposed to hurricanes & named storms and wind — and the denser the housing, the more a single hurricanes & named storms event can flood the claim funnel at once.
