Yes. There are many still living off FEMAs dime. However, those days are numbered, as I understand it. How many? Who knows? Did they remain in the city to "ride out the storm"? I don't know. There are some I know who left the city, but since their home/apartment was destroyed, they had no place to live. Some have relocated. Some came back to the area. Some have bought other homes in the new city; some are renting in other areas.
I hear PROFESSIONAL people saying that if another storm came, they would still stay. It's a personal decision. All I can tell you is that AKA2D' 91 will NOT "ride out a hurricane." I can't speak or judge anyone else and his or her decision.

HA! I wonder how this factors in with Harris County's (TX) DA's problems found in those emails?
