well that’s why it’s kinda interesting because it’s not yet. the most notable was Paradise and some Sonoma county burning down but compared to the whole state is like 0.000001% of housing that’s been lost. so actually things are still pretty good and hasn’t really been big disasters

however, future conditions are expected to get worse due to climate change

The only people that matter (rich people) were/are in the affected counties, hence the wholesale withdrawal.

I can already see the media and the "cultural moment" of the maui fire shifting away and everyone getting ready to move on. Things don't even take a few days anymore. Did any US government officials even comment on it? Anything going to be done for these people except for AEW and mikaela shiffrin sponsoring the maui foodbank? Any national figures going to say anything?

They didn't for the entire island US territory of Puerto Rico, so no.
