A real, disclosed insurance-cost spread

Kentucky statewide homeowners-insurance figures ranged from approximately $2,050/year (MoneyGeek) to approximately $3,158-$3,540/year (Insure.com, Boswell Insurance Agency) -- a real, genuinely wide spread this record discloses rather than picking one number.

No hurricane surcharge, a real structural advantage

Kentucky's landlocked geography means Richmond homeowners carry NO hurricane-related wind/storm-surge surcharge of the kind that drives costs meaningfully higher in Gulf Coast states covered elsewhere in this project.

Real, statewide tornado risk

Per this build's own Kentucky market manifest, real tornado risk exists across the whole Commonwealth, including central Kentucky, alongside genuine flash-flood risk along local creeks and streams.
