People in Fort Myers, Fla., are scrambling to find a place to live after Hurricane Ian ravaged the area in September, compelling some residents to camp in places where their homes once stood. The storm made impact in southwest Florida, destroying 5,000 homes and severely damaging another 30,000, according to data firm CoStar Group Inc. The destruction forced many families that want to stay in the area to seek temporary accommodations. They are often competing with the construction workers who swarmed the area to help with restoration efforts.
