Dude, getting home insurance is super hard anywhere anymore, and pricey. You have ONE problem and they try to NOT cover you. I know people here in Arizona who can hardly get home insurance over past water leaks.
Insurance is a casino, the house always wins.
Good point that I wasn’t fully aware of. I was just commenting on choosing to live in an extra risky location without insurance.
My guess is it wasn’t her choice. Not that it’s any of our business. I feel for anyone who’s lost everything in a fire.
I don’t buy that with what her household income looks like. She very likely had a choice.
I agree it definitely sucks.
As someone who has lost a loved one in a fire, i would sure rather lost every material thing and all my money than bury someone again.
Income doesn’t matter. Insurance is crooked.
That’s terrible, my condolences.
I’m saying income matters regarding her choice where she lives.
Oh I gotcha. It’s the dream, right? Live in gorgeous California with „perfect”
Weather… people forget how much of the state burns up and the liberal policies that don’t help.
With all things considered, SoCal is very far from a dream IMO. Moreso a nightmare. Even before these fires.
Obviously some people still think it’s justifiable, and that’s their right 🤷🏻.
Agreed. High taxes, expensive everything, a ton of traffic… not fun. I grew up in the Bay Area and it’s much the same. Idyllic places to live until you drill down on quality of life.
