Housing & Homelessness

This factsheet provides a one-year update to our data brief Who’s Coming Home?, which examined how Altadena single-family homeowners with severe fire damage (defined as homes where 50% or more of the structure was destroyed by the fire) were recovering in the first seven months after the January 2025 Eaton Fire. That earlier analysis combined property sales records, building permit applications, and fire damage assessments to track whether homeowners were selling, rebuilding, or remaining undecided about their future in the community.
