      There are building codes there. Why wouldn’t there be… as well as every manufactured home has to have a hurricane rating. These storms are extremely powerful and no matter what you have, damage is inevitable. Yes, you can build something that could withstand Cat 5, but it would cost a fortune, and like it’s been said, a lot of these people are elderly with little income, and sone are living check to check. We will get pass this, but it’s gonna be a long road ahead. I was a lineman for Katrina, and when I went down to plaqumines parish and the 9th ward, I didn’t think there was anyway that could ever be habitable again. We all thought it would be completely abandoned after that, but the spirit of Louisiana’s people didn’t let that stop us, and with gods help, we will prevail again!
