The New York Times: Babcock Ranch a Climate-Resistant Community
By: Atilus Developer
As Hurricane Milton rushed ashore last Wednesday at least 2,000 Floridians found safe haven at Babcock Ranch, a community the size of Manhattan that opened in 2018 to withstand climate-driven storms.
Babcock Ranch has built about a quarter of its 22,000 planned housing units along with two schools, parks and six million square feet of commercial space. It could serve as a model for how the state might become more resilient as climate change brings stronger hurricanes to Florida.
