Short answer: not well. Not well at all.
We can celebrate the fact that one home has been certified as rebuilt and ready for occupancy, that’s about it. After poking around, trying to find the exact numbers of homes and structures fully destroyed or severely damaged by the fire, I concluded that there is no reliable set of numbers. Some sources report 5-6,000, while others estimate 13,000.
Go figure.
But there is one thing about which we can be totally certain: Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass have been gaslighting Los Angeles-area residents about their intentions and their efforts to rebuild the region and get the displaced people back into their homes.
