I understand the sentiment, but in this case it's more like, neighborhoods built around oil derricks. Go look up pictures of HB from the early 20's. It was all farmland until oil was discovered, the city came later, with the first developments being built in the 50's. Just about every house in the city along the coast sits atop a capped well.
