Multi-unit buildings
68% of homes are in multi-unit buildings, whose outside walls aren't the owner's to change. Interior shutters are the option there.
Rain on the outside
57.3 inches of rain a year is hard on exterior finishes, which need repainting or replacing on a schedule. Shutters inside the window stay dry.
Counting the openings in a Miami home
Exterior shutters are usually priced per opening. The middle apartment in a building of five or more units has 3 to 5 windows, plus a balcony door.
51% of homes here were built before 1980. Older facades often have trim and sills that decide what fits outside.
