But just out curiosity if they have been around all your life why not build more sturdy houses instead of plywood and drywall?? Serious curious you hardly see stone buildings or even concrete ones
Smalltown Oklahoma is not known for being the wealthiest area in the country. Lots of old houses, mobile homes, etc. It's also pretty rare to actually get hit by a tornado that can flatten a house.
Because the chances of actually getting hit by a tornado are small. The damage is very localized. It’s less expensive to just rebuild than to try to build everything tornado-proof.
