I m talking about earthquakes, fires, and mudslides. Is it a high risk area?
That s the danger of only getting your info from the 6:00 news. Because the only time you ever hear of SoCal, some disaster is happening.Fact: Last major quake was in 1994.Fact: With over 10,000 square miles in the greater LA area, we lost some homes the past couple years to wildfires in the outlying foothill areas, leaving about 10 million homes unscathed.Fact: The mudslide areas only affect those areas that have been recently burned. Once again, a small fraction of one percent of the homes in LA.So, if you don t live up against the hills in a fire danger area, the risk is pretty minimal.
Nobody can predict earthquakes. Those can happened whenever they want.Only YOU can prevent forest fires - Smokey the Bear. To prevent fires in the house, just do what I do and put everything in strips and turn the strips off when nobody is at home. Reduces the risks of fires and the electricity bill.The average Angelino lives far away from a hill so there s nothing to worry about.Turn off the idiot box please.
Earthquakes are everywhere, there are earthquakes everyday in CA, Los Angeles is at high risk for a big eartquake, just be prepared, it ll save your life, and you ll get use to it, mudslides are only in the mountain areas, but not in the city, same for the fires, but earthquakes is the whole city, but 18,000,000 million people make LA and there not scared
nooo!!!!!!!the last earthquake i felt was way early this year and it wasn t even a big one. and mudsllides i dnt even remember a mudslides and fires well they mostly happen because someone has started them but they don t come naturally.
No one can predict earthquakes or where they will specifically strike but it is entirely possible to live in many places in Los Angeles while avoiding fires and mudslides.
What to worry about: Finding a job, traffic, finding a place to live, high state taxes.
