Now that most have weathered the power outage in N.CA there are many homes burning in Porter Ranch area.

Re: Many homes burning near LA

It's great to feel sorry & pray for those folks - and I have relatives there.....but they know what occurs every year - yet- they rebuild and choose to stay.   Only once for me and I'd be out of there.

Ask my relatives - why?    Ans:   weather is great

OKAY

As a previous poster stated: for me it would be "one and done"(after one fire or one widespread and long lasting power outage) I would be moving (probably out of state).

People in other locales suffer through tornadoes, hurricanes, massive flooding, etc. Yet I've never heard it suggested that they should move to a different state.

 

I lived in the San Fernando Valley for 29 years. We were not in the same areas as today's horrific fire, but certainly we could have faced such a problem. Never once did we consider moving for that reason.

 

Now, I will say that we would not entertain the thought of living in area that is extremely fire-prone, but move out of state? No way.
