People continue to live in areas prone to drought for various reasons, including economic opportunities, cultural ties, and historical settlement patterns. Many communities rely on agriculture or Natural Resources that are integral to their livelihoods, making relocation difficult. Additionally, advancements in irrigation technology and water management can mitigate some effects of drought, encouraging residents to stay. Lastly, some individuals may lack the financial means or resources to move elsewhere.

Do bears live near homes?

Generally, they don't, but people are building more and more in areas where bears are. Conditions like drought also causes bears to seek out water and food in areas where people live. Here in California because of our drought bears have been found in housing areas. One person found a mother and her cubs in their swimming pool. Another man had a bear decide to live under his porch. I know in some areas of Alaska that towns have to watch out for polar bears coming into town. So, a combination of conditions leaves room for bears to seek out what they need.
