12 1. Introduction Introduction & Methods This document presents regional findings from a survey of Florida residents conducted as part of the Statewide Regional Evacuation Study. The primary aim of the survey was to provide data to assist in deriving evacuation behavioral assumptions for transportation and shelter analyses. The main focus of the survey was hurricane evacuation, but questions were also asked about evacuation due to freshwater flooding, wildfires, hazardous material accidents, and nuclear power plant accidents. The survey included questions that are important in developing accurate behavioral projections for transportation and shelter planning but also incorporated questions deemed useful by county emergency management officials. Meetings were held with county and regional planning council representatives to discuss the questionnaire and related survey issues. In each non-coastal county of the state, 150 interviews were conducted randomly by telephone. In each coastal county of the state 400 interviews were conducted. The interviews were allocated among aggregations of hurricane evacuation zones (e.g., category 1-2) in the respective counties. The aggregation of evacuation zones and allocations of interviews among the evacuation zones were determined after input from county and regional representatives and varied among counties and regions. Selections were also made in order to reflect aggregations of evacuation zones currently used operationally and in public information materials by counties and to provide appropriate distributions of data that would be necessary to derive behavioral projections as required by the Statewide Regional Evacuation Study. In order to ensure that respondents resided in the evacuation zones of interest, addresses were selected first and then matched with telephone numbers. Only residences with land-line telephones were called, as sampling was conducted by address. For non-coastal counties, tables in this document report survey findings for the county without geographical breakdowns. For coastal counties, tables summarize survey findings in several ways geographically. For the region and for each county, results for all evacuation zones are aggregated without weighting the evacuation zones to reflect actual populations in each zone. Results are also presented by evacuation zone for the region, and the regional aggregations for evacuation zones are also not weighted to reflect actual population variations among counties. Finally, results are presented for each zone within each county. In one respect, this is the most accurate level of reporting because findings are not being mixed with those for other locations. However, this is also the reporting level with the smallest number of respondents, and statistical reliability is poorer for smaller samples. For every coastal county and for every region with coastal counties, tables report findings for six evacuation zones (category 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 surge-related evacuation zones, plus non-surge zones). In locations where evacuation zones were aggregated the tables show the same data for each zone separately (for category 1 and 2, for example). This is done to achieve uniformity of tables among counties and regions, but tables should not be misconstrued to infer that sample sizes apply to each evacuation zone separately. Tables are formatted to make clear instances where sample sizes are shared among evacuation zones. For hazards other than hurricanes, sample sizes are smaller. In most counties, one-third of the respondents were asked about freshwater flooding or wildfires or hazardous material accidents. In counties within the emergency planning zone for a nuclear power plant, one-fourth of the respondents were asked about one of the previously listed hazards or about nuclear power plants.

18 2. Executive Summary Evacuation Destination Regardless of the hurricane strength, pluralities of residents of the region intend to go to friends or relatives if they evacuate. Very minor changes in evacuation destinations occur as hurricanes strengthen. Most residents intend to evacuate to other places in Florida regardless of hurricane strength. Percentages of residents who intend to evacuate outside Florida increase considerably as hurricanes strengthen to. Most residents who intend to evacuate outside Florida will go to Georgia.

The typical household plans to take one vehicle during an evacuation. Only 5% of households plan to take a motor home, pull a trailer, boat, etc. when they evacuate. Issues Impacting Evacuation Almost half of residents (45%) in the region have pets: 85% of these residents plan to take their pets with them if the evacuate. Most residents with pets (95%) are aware that public shelters will not accept pets inside, and 6% of these residents claim they will not evacuate because of this. Six percent of households contain an individual who requires assistance during evacuation. Two in three of these households (65% - which translates to 4% of all households) have an individual who is disabled, has a medical condition or requires some other type of special assistance beyond transportation assistance. Eighteen percent of these households (1% of all households) will require assistance from an outside agency. Only one in four (24%) households that require special assistance has registered with their county as needing special assistance.

26 4. Awareness of Evacuation s Have you ever seen a map of your county showing areas that would need to evacuate in case of a hurricane? Two out of three residents (66%) in the region maintain they have seen a map of their county showing areas that need to evacuate in case of hurricanes. There is a direct relationship between having seen a map showing evacuation zones and the level of risk for storm damage as 72% of residents in evacuation zones 1 and 2 report seeing a map, while only 58% of residents in non-surge areas report seeing a map with evacuation zones marked.

27 4. Awareness of Evacuation s Your county has identified storm surge areas that people would need to evacuate in certain hurricanes. Do you live in one of the storm surge hurricane evacuation zones or do you live in an area that would not be affected by storm surge? Residents of coastal counties were asked if they lived in areas identified by their counties as storm surge areas, i.e., areas that would need to evacuate in certain hurricanes. Three in ten residents (32%) of the coastal counties in the region believe they live in an evacuation zone. Residents who live in evacuation zones 1 and 2 (48%) are much more likely than other residents (9% to 33%) to surmise that they live in evacuation zones.

28 4. Awareness of Evacuation s Aware of Storm Evacuation Residents of coastal counties in the region who claim they live in evacuation zones were asked to indicate the evacuation zone in which they live. Majorities of residents in each evacuation zone do not know in which evacuation zone they live. For example, 62% of residents who live in evacuation zone 1 do not know they live there; 61% of residents in evacuation zone 3 do not know they live there; and 57% of residents in evacuation zone 5 do not know they live there. Relatively few residents can identify correctly the evacuation zone in which they live. Aware of Storm Evacuation () County-Level Results Residents in Indian River County who live in evacuation zones 1 and 2 were more likely to correctly identify the evacuation zone in which they live. Only 16% of Indian River County residents who live in evacuation zones 3, 4, and 5 correctly identify their respective evacuation zones. Palm Beach County residents who think they live in evacuation zones are better at naming their specific evacuation zones, yet 53% of residents who live in evacuation zone 1 and 2 are not certain in which evacuation zone they live. One in three Palm Beach County residents (35%) who live in evacuation zone 1 and 2 correctly identify their evacuation zone, and 38% correctly identify that they live in evacuation zones 3, 4, and 5. County residents are the least likely to know in which evacuation zone they live. Only 11% of County residents who live in evacuation zone 1 and 2 correctly identify their evacuation zone, and only 15% of residents who live in evacuation zone 4 and 5 correctly identify their evacuation zone. Twenty-two percent (22%) of County residents living in evacuation zones 1 and 2 correctly identify this as the evacuation zone in which they live. Only 5% of residents in County who live in evacuation zones 4 and 5 correctly identify their evacuation zone.

32 5. Perceived Vulnerability Do you believe storm surge or waves from a category 2 hurricane would reach your home and cause flooding severe enough to pose a serious danger to your safety? Residents in coastal counties of the region were read the following description: A category 2 hurricane has winds of 100 miles per hour. If a category 2 hurricane with 100 mile per hour winds passed directly over your location, do you believe storm surge or waves would reach your home and cause flooding severe enough to pose a serious danger to your safety? Only 13% of residents in the region believe a category 2 hurricane poses serious danger to their safety.

Only 9% of residents living in non-surge zones think a category 2 hurricane will pose serious danger to their safety. County-Level Results County residents (17%) are more likely to believe a category 2 hurricane represents serious danger to their safety. County residents (9%) are less likely to think that a category 2 hurricane represents serious danger. Somewhat surprisingly, 31% of County residents living in evacuation zones 3 through 5 feel that a category 2 hurricane poses dangerous risks.

33 5. Perceived Vulnerability Do you believe storm surge or waves from a category 3 hurricane would reach your home and cause flooding severe enough to pose a serious danger to your safety? Residents were given the following description: Remembering that a category 1 is the weakest and 5 is the strongest, a category 3 hurricane has winds of 125 miles per hour.

56 6. Evacuation Plans If you DID evacuate during a category 5 hurricane, where would you go? Planned evacuation patterns varied negligibly as hurricanes strengthen from 1 or 2 to 3 to 5. The percentages of residents who will evacuate to a public shelter for a hurricane actually decreases to 13% for a category 5 hurricane compared to 14% for a category 3 hurricane. A summary of intent to evacuate to a public shelter as storms strengthen from a 1 or 2 to a 3 to nearly a 5 is shown below: 13% or 2 hurricane 14% hurricane 13% hurricane strengthening to a category 5 The same percentages of residents evacuate to a friend or relative s place regardless of storm strength as shown below: 39% or 2 hurricane 39% hurricane 39% hurricane strengthening to a category 5 Percentages of residents who say they will evacuate to hotels/motels stayed stable across different strength hurricanes. County-Level Results Since residents evacuation destinations do not change dramatically as hurricane strength changes from 1 or 2 to 3 to 5, differences in evacuation destinations across counties is roughly the same for a category 5 hurricane as they are for less intense hurricanes.

64 6. Evacuation Plans If you evacuated for a category 3 hurricane, where would you go? Evacuation destinations for a category 3 hurricane are nearly identical to evacuation destinations for a category 2 hurricane. Somewhere else in Florida is still the most popular destination (42%), while somewhere else within the same county (19%) is tied with somewhere outside Florida as the second most popular destination.

78 8. Obstacles to Evacuation Are there any obstacles other than a lack of transportation or special needs that I ve asked about that would prevent you from being able to leave your home and go someplace safer during a hurricane threat? One in ten households (11%) claims that there are obstacles beyond transportation and disabilities/medical needs that create obstacles to evacuating. Pets (33%), traffic (28%), and jobs (20%) are cited as the most critical obstacles to evacuation other than lack of transportation or medical/special needs. Residents living in evacuation zones 1 and 2 are more likely to think traffic will be a problem.

Two out of three households (65%) containing individuals needing assistance during hurricane evacuation have special needs (40% special needs + 25% special needs and transportation needs). This represents only 4% of all households. Over half of households (56%) containing individuals needing special assistance require transportation (31% transportation + 25% special needs and transportation needs). It should be noted that these households represent only about 3% of all households in the region.

188 19. Appendix C All questions in the study were crosstabulated by type of housing so responses from residents who live in site built can be compared to responses from residents who live in mobile or manufactured. These crosstabulations are presented on the following pages. An example of a crosstabulation table with an explanation of how to interpret the table is on page 182. The table of contents for Appendix C is below: Appendix C Table of Contents Question Q.16 Have you ever seen a map of your county showing areas that would need to evacuate in case of a hurricane? 1 Q.17 Do you have access to the Internet so you could look up information about hurricanes? 2 Q.18 Have you ever visited County s website to look up information about hurricanes? 3 Q.19 County has identified storm surge areas that people would need to evacuate in certain hurricanes. Do you live in one of the storm surge hurricane evacuation zones or do you live in an area that would not be affected by storm surge? Q.26 [Indian River] Do you live in the /2 zone or the /5 zone? [Palm Beach] Do you live in A -- and 2 storms or B --, 4, and 5 storms? 5 Q.27 [ & ] Do you live in the zone, the zone, or the zone? 5 Q.30 Q.31 Q.32 Q.33a Q.33b A category 2 hurricane has winds of 100 MPH. If a category 2 hurricane with 100 MPH winds passed directly over your location, do you believe storm surge or waves would reach your home and cause flooding severe enough to pose a serious danger to your safety? Considering both wind from the hurricane as well as flooding, do you think it would be safe for you to stay in your home or building if a category 2 hurricane with 100 MPH winds passed directly over your location? In a category 2 hurricane with winds of 100 MPH, do you think Emergency Management officials in County would issue an evacuation notice saying you should leave your home and go someplace safer? That is, would they tell you to evacuate? Suppose officials DID issue a mandatory evacuation notice saying you had to leave because of potential flooding from a category 1 OR 2 hurricane. In that case, would you leave your home to go someplace safer? Suppose that officials DID issue a mandatory evacuation notice saying that everyone living in areas that would be affected by flooding in a category 1 OR 2 hurricane and everyone living in mobile or manufactured housing in County must evacuate their and go to a safer location. In that case, would you leave your home to go someplace safer? Q.34 If you DID evacuate, would you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 11 Q.35 Where would that be located? 12 Q.37 In what state is that located? 13 Q.38 Q.39 Q.40 Q.41a Q.41b Remember that a category 1 is the weakest and 5 is the strongest. A category 3 hurricane has winds of 125 MPH. Emergency management officials call it a major hurricane. If a category 3 hurricane with 125 MPH winds passed directly over your location, do you believe storm surge or waves would reach your home and cause flooding severe enough to pose a serious danger to your safety? Considering both wind and flooding, do you think it would be safe for you to stay in your home if a category 3 hurricane with 125 MPH winds passed directly over your location? In a category 3 hurricane with winds of 125 MPH, do you think Emergency Management officials in County would issue an evacuation notice saying you should leave your home and go someplace safer? Suppose officials DID issue a mandatory evacuation notice saying you had to leave because of potential flooding from a category 3 hurricane. In that case, would you leave your home to go someplace safer? Suppose that officials DID issue a mandatory evacuation notice saying that everyone living in areas that would be affected by flooding in a category 3 hurricane and everyone living in mobile or manufactured housing in County must evacuate their and go to a safer location. That would apply to everyone living in areas that would be flooded by a category 1, 2, OR 3 hurricane and everyone in mobile. In that case, would you leave your home to go someplace safer? Q.42 If you DID evacuate, would you go to a different place than you would in a hurricane? 19 Q.43 Would you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 20 Q.44 Where would that be located? 21 Q.46 In what state is that located?

189 19. Appendix C Q.47 Q.48 Q.49 Q.50a Q.50b Finally I would like you to consider a category 4 hurricane with winds of 155 MPH. It would almost be a category 5 hurricane. If a category 4 hurricane passed directly over your location, do you believe storm surge or waves would reach your home and cause flooding severe enough to pose a serious danger to your safety? Considering both wind and flooding, do you think it would be safe for you to stay in your home or building if a category 4 hurricane with 155 MPH winds passed directly over your location? In a category 4 hurricane with winds of 155 MPH, do you think Emergency Management officials in County would issue an evacuation notice saying you should leave your home and go someplace safer? Suppose that officials decided that the storm could strengthen and become a category 5 hurricane. If they issued a mandatory evacuation notice saying you should leave your home and go someplace safer, would you leave your home to go someplace safer? Suppose that officials decided that the storm could strengthen and become a category 5 hurricane. They issued a mandatory evacuation notice saying that everyone living in areas that would be affected by flooding in, 2, 3, 4, or 5 hurricane and everyone living in mobile or manufactured housing in County must evacuate their home and go to a safer location. In that case, would you leave your home to go someplace safer? Q.51 If you DID evacuate, would you go to a different place than you would in a category 3 hurricane? 28 Q.52 Would you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 29 Q.53 Where would that be located? 30 Q.55 In what state is that located? 31 Q.56 County officials encourage evacuees to stay with friends or relatives in locations outside the areas being told to evacuate. Do you have friends or relatives in safe locations with whom you could stay in an evacuation if necessary? 32 Q.57 How many vehicles would be available in your household that you could use to evacuate? (Average) 33 Q.57 How many vehicles would be available in your household that you could use to evacuate? 34 Q.58 How many vehicles would your household take if you evacuated? (Average) 35 Q.58 Percentage of available vehicles used to evacuate 36 Q.59 If you evacuated, would you take a motor home or pull a trailer, boat, or camper? 37 Q.60 In an evacuation, would you or anyone in your household require assistance in order to evacuate? 38 Q.61 Q.62 Q.63 Q.64 Would the person just need transportation, or do they have a disability or medical problem that would require special assistance? Would that assistance be provided by someone within your household, by an outside agency, or by a friend or relative outside your household? Is that person registered with County as a person who would have special needs during a hurricane evacuation? Do you and your family currently have a definite plan for deciding whether to evacuate and where to go if a hurricane threatened? Q.65 Are there any obstacles other than a lack of transportation or special needs that I ve asked about that would prevent you from being able to leave your home and go someplace safer during a hurricane threat? 43 Q.66 What is that obstacle? 44 Q.105 Were you living in this location and at home, that is, not out of town, when Hurricane Frances began to threaten this area in 2004? 45 Q.106 Did you leave your home to go someplace safer in response to the threat created by Hurricane Frances? 46 Q.107 Did you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 47 Q.108 Where was that located? 48 Q.110 In what state was that located? 49 Q.111 Q.112 During the threat, did you hear either directly or indirectly anyone in an official position - such as elected officials, emergency management officials, or police - say that you and people in your location should evacuate to a safer place? That is, did state or local officials issue any kind of evacuation notice that applied to you that you were aware of before the storm had passed? During Hurricane Frances, did officials recommend that you should evacuate or did they say it was mandatory that you must evacuate? Q.132 Were you living in this location and at home, that is, not out of town, when Hurricane Jeanne began to threaten this area in 2004? 52 Q.133 Did you leave your home to go someplace safer in response to the threat created by Hurricane Jeanne?

Appendix C Q.134 Did you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 54 Q.135 Where was that located? 55 Q.137 In what state was that located? 56 Q.138 Q.139 During the threat, did you hear either directly or indirectly anyone in an official position - such as elected officials, emergency management officials, or police - say that you and people in your location should evacuate to a safer place? That is, did state or local officials issue any kind of evacuation notice that applied to you that you were aware of before the storm had passed? During Hurricane Jeanne, did officials recommend that you should evacuate or did they say it was mandatory that you must evacuate? Q.168 Were you living in this location and at home, that is, not out of town, when Hurricane Wilma began to threaten this area in 2004? 59 Q.169 Did you leave your home to go someplace safer in response to the threat created by Hurricane Wilma? 60 Q.170 Did you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 61 Q.171 Where was that located? 62 Q.173 In what state was that located? 63 Q.174 During the threat, did you hear either directly or indirectly anyone in an official position - such as elected officials, emergency management officials, or police - say that you and people in your location should evacuate to a safer place? That is, did state or local officials issue any kind of evacuation notice that applied to you that you were aware of before the storm had passed? Q.175 During Hurricane Wilma, did officials recommend that you should evacuate or did they say it was mandatory that you must evacuate? 65 Q.177 Is your Mobile or Manufactured home built to the stronger wind standards they started using in 1994? 66 Q.178 Was your home built after 2002? 66 Q.179 Do you have protection for all of the windows and sliding glass doors in your house? 67 Q.180 Do you have any pets? 68 Q.181 What would you do with your pets during a hurricane evacuation? 69 Q.182 Are you aware that most public hurricane shelters don t allow pets inside? 70 Q.183 Q.184 If you would not be allowed to take your pet with you to a public shelter, would that keep you from evacuating or would you go someplace else? My previous questions have dealt with hurricanes, but now I d like to ask you just a few quick questions about wildfires. Wildfires are fires that mainly burn forests and other natural areas but can sometimes spread and threaten neighborhoods and communities where people live. First of all, do you believe that your home might ever be threatened by a wildfire? Q.185 If a wildfire threatened your community and public safety officials ordered you to evacuate, would you? 73 Q.186 Where would you go if you evacuated because of a wildfire? Would you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 74 Q.187 Since you ve been living in this location, have you ever evacuated your home because of a wildfire? 75 Q.189 Did you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 75 Q.190 My previous questions have dealt with hurricanes, but now I d like to ask you just a few quick questions about freshwater flooding. In some locations, flooding can occur near rivers, streams, lakes, and low-lying areas because of heavy rainfall. That s sometimes called freshwater flooding. Do you believe that your home might ever be threatened by freshwater flooding? Q.191 If freshwater flooding threatened your community and public safety officials ordered you to evacuate, would you? 77 Q.192 Where would you go if you evacuated because of freshwater flooding? Would you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 78 Q.193 Since you ve been living in this location, have you ever evacuated your home because of freshwater flooding? 79 Q.195 Did you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 80 Q.196 Q.197 My previous questions have dealt with hurricanes, but now I d like to ask you just a few quick questions about hazardous material accidents. Sometimes threats can be created by transportation or industrial accidents that involved hazardous materials such as chemicals. Do you believe that your home might ever be threatened by a hazardous material accident? If a hazardous material accident threatened your community and public safety officials ordered you to evacuate, would you?

Since you ve been living in this location, have you ever evacuated your home because of a hazardous material accident? Suppose there was a hazardous material accident but public safety officials advised you to close your windows and doors, turn off your air conditioner, and stay indoors rather than trying to evacuate. Would you stay indoors rather than trying to evacuate? My previous questions have dealt with hurricanes, but now I d like to ask you just a few quick questions about nuclear power plant. Do you believe that your home might ever be threatened by radiation released as a result of an accident at nuclear power plant? If an accident at nuclear power plant threatened your community and public safety officials ordered you to evacuate, would you? Q.206 Where would you go if you DID evacuated because of an accident at nuclear power plant? Would you go to: Read first 3 choices, then read or someplace else? 87 Q.207 Are you located within the 10-mile emergency planning zone for nuclear power plant? 87 Q.208 Q.209 Do you have a brochure or other information telling you what you should do in case of an accident at nuclear power plant? Suppose there was an accident at nuclear power plant but public safety officials advised you to close your windows and doors, turn off your air conditioner, and stay indoors rather than trying to evacuate. Would you stay indoors rather than trying to evacuate? How to Interpret Tables in Appendix C Row N % is the percentage of residents that selected a particular answer choice.
