Marco Island is a Gulf barrier island where nearly half the housing is seasonal and almost nine in ten homes are owner-occupied — a high-value, part-year market where the FEMA 50% rule governs what can be repaired or rebuilt.

What the data says about building here
Marco Island is a barrier island, and its housing says so: 49.2% of homes are used only seasonally — the highest seasonal share in the region — and 89.4% of the ones lived in are owner-occupied. Demand times itself to the season and prices to an $896,300-median market.
Because it is a barrier island in a flood zone, the FEMA 50% rule shapes what owners can repair and rebuild — context that belongs on any contractor or home-service page serving the island. The anchoring base is Collier County's 14,541 establishments and $8.88B in annual payroll (CBP 2023).
Hurricane Ian made landfall in Southwest Florida on September 28, 2022 as a high-end Category 4 near Cayo Costa; the Collier and Lee coast took catastrophic storm surge and wind damage, and the rebuild is still underway.
