As someone who lived in Miami during Hurricane Andrew, and later watched Katrina and Harvey unfold, I beg to differ. I know that building codes have changed since Andrew. It will take another big hurricane to see if the changes were adequate and if they've been followed.
A personal picture from back then:

BTW, yesterday was the 23rd anniversary of Andrew and the 29th will be the 15th anniversary of Katrina's landfall in Louisiana.
