Wildfires, Insurance, and Planning for Disaster

  • Résumé

  • Nate and Maria discuss the California wildfires. How do incentives in insurance markets drive decisions by homeowners – and by insurers? What’s the best way to make rational decisions about the disaster risks we all face?

    And they discuss a question from listener JM who asks what happens when the River and the Village mix it up in Washington?
