This is probably better put in another post, but I think I agree with your read of the situation and recommendations, and want to follow it with the (to me) logical next step: “how to get some of the good things we could get by moving, without moving”
I like this post because it does talk about a bunch of things that could be got (sense of safety, isolation from political unrest, etc).
It seems not-easy and also not-impossible to brainstorm ways of dealing with this as a community in a sane and cost-effective way.
One way this could go: (sketch of a vision)
Right now SF and most cities have a bunch of “earthquake disaster preparation” advice. Things you should have on hand, ready to go, plans you should have made ahead of time, people to contact in case communications go down, things to do to prepare your home structure, attach your furniture to the walls, etc.
We could make some community version of that, pointed directly at the things we want to point at.
