Kathy, my thoughts, it's more of a preference. A lot of new construction now are using steel roofs and they have come so far with the design, especially when LEED is put into play. Some people prefer shingles because of aesthetics - it looks nicer and there's a lot of varieties.

Hi. Glad to be here. Does anyone know if steel roofing is more safe than asphalt shingles? (I don't mean in a wild fire area, I just mean in general.) Thanks.
