They have no evacuated Chico, but the fire is 20+ sq miles with 0% containment less than 10 miles from the city limits. They’ve evacuated all towns to the west, and literally up to the city limits of Chico.

They’ve cancelled school. Closed all city offices. But they have no issues an evacuation for Chico. What this means is the city has indirectly told people with the resources to do so to leave. Your kids are out of school. You’re off work. You have no reason to stay.

But the poor folks and folks with no resources will not leave until they are told. They can not afford to. They have no where to go. They have unreliable cars. They have children.

People without resources are home watching the news instead of taking precautionary measures bc precautionary measures are a privilege.
