This city is up a mountain, dude. Some of the people hit hard are in some extremely rural areas, well outside town limits.
I have some friends in Asheville. I'll be sure to scold them for not doing enough to fix their city.
This is Asheville in north Carolina according to the screenshot which has recently been hit by hurricane Helene. There is no way that I know of to 'plan a city' in a way that prevents a hurricane from devastating the area and killing dozens. If such a measure existed, then why wouldn't it have already been implemented on the south-eastern US coast where hurricanes and tropical storms are most frequent?
