Wildfires in Los Angeles have left thousands homeless, intensifying emotional trauma and housing challenges. The rental market, already tight, now faces surging demand and rising prices, compounding difficulties for displaced residents. Many struggle to process the loss of homes and communities, focusing instead on immediate needs like housing and stability. Victims describe the destruction as more than material, erasing lifetimes of memories and shared experiences. Amidst the ruins, resilience persists, with residents determined to rebuild their lives despite the immense emotional and logistical hurdles.
