@jhamby @ai6yr @VirginiaHolloway @exador23 All kinds of families lived there. Those with young kids - 3-5 years of rebuilding is a long time in those young lives… they are likely to permanently relocate. A grand re-shuffling of the population like Covid.

In response to this post@deewani @ai6yr @VirginiaHolloway @exador23 You're right. I still don't have my head fully wrapped around the reality of so many households' lives uprooted so suddenly and so completely. And this is an expensive area to live with a housing shortage already, so the situation for both short and long-term housing for so many people reminds me of the situation after Hurricane Katrina.
@jhamby @deewani @ai6yr @exador23
And of course this will have a ripple effect on those who didn't lose their homes as well. None of those people who lost their homes will need landscapers or housekeepers, and those cars that were burned up won't need oil changes, and when an employer moves away because their house or business burned down they're not going take their employees with them.
