Just about every scientist has been predicting for years that one consequence of global warming is hotter, drier, weather in the American west, with one consequence being longer, more severe, fire seasons. Unfortunately, one political party has their heads in the sand about this reality.
With earthquakes, I don't think there has been a fatal earthquake in California in three decades. I know people moan about 'government red tape' but strict building codes mean that earthquakes that would result in thousands of injuries/deaths in other countries cause only minor, localized, damage in California.
High housing costs, however, are a significant issue that needs to be addressed.
