Ongoing Sinking: Massive Landslide Threatens Homes in Rolling Hills Estates

Homes in Rolling Hills Estates, California, continue to sink into a canyon following a massive landslide, prompting city officials to declare a local state of emergency and order more evacuations. At least twelve homes have been deemed unsafe, with another 10 actively moving and 17 under monitoring. The cause of the landslide remains unknown, but experts suspect water saturation in the rocks or soil may be a factor. Displaced residents are concerned about potential loss and insurance coverage, as typical insurance policies are unlikely to cover damages from landslides. The county assessor is offering property tax relief to affected homeowners, and officials are seeking geological investigation to understand the cause and prevent future incidents.
