It’s worth remembering this is just one of the 1% of sinkholes that make the news.

As a native, I already know it's not an unusual event and problem in several subdivisions, I realize you're relatively new to Florida and maybe the occurrences.

I’m new? Been in FL since the 1990s.

I wasn’t really directing that comment towards you, just readers of the thread who may not know. Most people don’t realize cover collapse sinkholes are the ones making the news when all the cover subsidence ones go unreported. It’s really tough for homeowners who have one since it can cost $100k to ‘fix’ and even then the property is still worth less. I feel bad for people with that kind of financial burden.

Can't be a expert if you only lived here since the 90's.

A sinkhole in Florida is not really news. It's "of interest" to those who live nearby.
