Sharing is Caring!

Land movement in Rancho Palos Verdes has been accelerating, causing significant damage to roads and homes. Experts have noted that the land is moving at a rate of about 12 inches per week in some areas. This movement has resulted in large cracks in roads and homes sinking. Additionally, the shifting land has created a new stretch of coastline.

Regarding Encino, residents have been dealing with a dangerous six-foot sinkhole and have been in communication with various city agencies to address the issue.
