As the Vice Chair of the Altadena Town Council, Nic Arnzen has been a voice for approximately 5,500 residents in the community. However, in the wake of the recent fires, Arnzen now estimates that only a handful of homes remain standing.
Arnzen paints a grim picture of the aftermath, stating, 'The best way to explain it is if you look around right now at your neighborhood and you think about waving at your neighbor and walking down your street – imagine in a 24-hour period all of that being gone. Where I used to see homes, I’m seeing acres of debris and rubble.'
