This is probably a very dumb question but, why do the utility companies in hurricane country keep putting lines up in the same way that keeps getting blown down?

Have they considered running them underground?

I do electrical distribution design.
Do you have any idea how much that would cost?
Do you understand how much longer it takes to fix cable faults?
It’s also essentially a swamp there.
Do you want to pay 15x your current bill?
