Rebuilding will be a challenge. So much so that I expect it won't be attempted in those areas for a long time due to insurance, permitting, environmental impact etc. Those people will more likely just buy an existing home if they can afford it or move out of state. I'm a California ex-pat myself having left in 2006. None of my family closer than one first cousin is still there! All those left of my immediate family are spread out in Arizona now.
Fleeing the flood and vulcanos.

Rebuilding any disaster-hit neighborhood anywhere would be difficult, but you're right about the insurance, permitting, environmental impact issues etc. making it difficult, and probably more so than in other states. Not to mention there will be lawsuits filed against city government for failing to provide adequate firefighting services, etc. For example, why was the 117-million gallon Pacific Palisades reservoir empty and offline months before the fires?

It surprises me that these abodes have no fire resistancy built into them. Anything made of metal would burn out but it would not burn down.

in lethal weapon 2, Mel's character single-handedly, with his Ford pick-up truck, pulls down the (evil,murderous) South African consulate general's house; and now 30 odd years on, his house in the same area as the fictional one, destroyed.

Mel Gibson also tries to take it with humour.
In the interview (video above) he said that it looks like after the
"Firestorm in Dresden"

He's also an antisemitic asshole.
Nopeβ¦Yah, I know about Mel's faux pas when he was as blue as hundred Russians. π€ͺ
Steve Lake
is an
"antisemitic asshole"

But Stevey hates everyone and everything.
In that respect, it doesn't matter, right? -
