LOS ANGELES — Oprah Winfrey has amassed an impressive collection of Montecito real estate over the last two decades.
But the media mogul's latest headline in the luxury community is not about a house, but a wall — one that neighbors fear might reroute flooding onto their properties during the next rainstorm.
After months of heavy rainfall and flooding across the community, a boulder wall was installed along San Ysidro Creek, which runs along Winfrey's estate, to protect the property from flooding and creek erosion, according to Santa Barbara's Noozhawk.
