What gets photographedPage One, the Camera and the Reader in La Mirada
Hardly any homes here are older than 1950, and most are tract ranches with brick fireplaces. Some later houses went a different way with metal units, and the report states which one it found so the owner knows what the photos mean. Crack placement matters here, because the epicenter of the 2014 La Habra shaking lay just northeast of town. Marine clouds reach this far on many spring mornings. Gas appliances escape the no-burn alerts, but wood fires do not, so the report lists the fuel.
