I also wonder about opportunity cost. What road was not repaved to prioritize this one?

If that house is low fire risk, what could possibly qualify as high fire risk?

“I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.”

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

Quite a jump from May!

That fire factor seems … … low.
Asking price increased from $3.99m to $5.88m from May to September of this year. “Fire factor - moderate - 0.93% chance of being in a wildfire in next 30 years.”

“fire-hardened construction with durable standing seam metal and plaster and a fire sprinkler system” 👍🏻

That said I’m astonished people would build new stuff there today. Guess they really like that view.

This is another lovely meditation on life in Chicago right now: organizingmythoughts.org/in-chicago-w...
In Chicago, We Run Toward Danger Together
"Faced with unrelenting state violence, Chicagoans have refused to be cowed," says Mariame Kaba.
