Why are sinkholes common in Florida?
Florida is a peninsula. Sinkholes are commonly formed on peninsulas because a peninsula is surrounded by water.
Florida has a lot of swamps with animals that burrow into the sandy soil making holes and tunnels that collapse.
Florida's underlying rock is limestone. Limestone dissolves easily, forming caverns which can then collapse and form a sinkhole.
Florida has a lot of oil underground. When the oil is removed, there is nothing left to hold up the soil
