Why mold grows in Hollywood homes

April 2023 hit Hollywood hard. During the April 12–13, 2023 flood, Hollywood recorded about 18 inches of rain, and many streets and homes took on water. Materials that stayed wet can still hide mold.

Beach and Intracoastal living. Hollywood Beach, the Broadwalk and the Intracoastal neighborhoods sit in humid, salty air that keeps materials damp and wears out AC equipment.

A city of older homes. Hollywood was founded in the 1920s, and neighborhoods like Hollywood Lakes, Emerald Hills and Highland Gardens include many older houses with aging roofs and plumbing.
