Because people rich enough to buy coastal California real estate will be dead or in a nursing home by the time this happens. Or if they’re young, they have enough money that loosing a couple million is a cheap price to pay for living on the beach.
- jeffbee 5y ago"Coastal real estate" in California is in no way endangered by sea level rise, being characterized by bluffs. Sea level rise imperils people who live along undesirable shores in places like Stockton and Newark and East Palo Alto.
- tastyfreeze 5y agoDepends how close the house is to the bluff. Higher water means more cliff erosion.
- johnchristopher 5y agoI wonder where people in Stockton and Newark and East Palo Alto will go and/or try to move to when floods start coming regularly. Living 500 meters from the impact point of a catastrophe doesn't mean we aren't endangered by its consequences :/.
- SavantIdiot 5y agoMost of SoCal coast is not characterized by bluffs. Not sure what you are referring to? NorCal?
- jdavis703 5y agoI assume so, since they were mentioning Stockton and EPA.
