About Roosevelt Gardens.
Roosevelt Gardens in Florida falls in a high-risk zone for hurricanes, due to its close proximity to the Atlantic coast. Its geographical location ensures direct exposure to hurricanes making landfall off the Atlantic, as well as significant tropical storm activity during peak hurricane seasons. The town, which is near sea level, with an average elevation of ranging from 6 to 10 ft above sea level, also faces a considerable risk of storm surge and flooding. Primarily residential, this densely populated area could see extensive home damage or destruction during a major hurricane, along with significant displacement of residents and potential loss of life.
Historically, Roosevelt Gardens has been significantly impacted by several major hurricanes and floods over the past 30 years. In 1992, Hurricane Andrew caused widespread damage, followed closely by Hurricane Erin in 1995, which resulted in power outages and flood damage. In the 2000s, the town was hit by a series of hurricanes - Frances and Jeanne in 2004, and then Wilma in 2005. Each of these storms presented varying degrees of wind damage, flooding, and storm surge. Particularly, Hurricane Irma in 2017 brought substantial rainfall and flooding to the area, damaging homes and infrastructure. The accumulation of these storms over the years has highlighted the area’s vulnerability to hurricanes and underscored the importance of preparedness measures.
