I live in USA. Every house is wood 😓
I see fires happening throught my city all the time (and no, I do not live in California). I think there are houses that got burned that are withing walking distance of me. I think there are one that had a fire right on my block, I didn’t see much, but I saw fire trucks and a lot of sirens, and someone’s house has their window broken, presumably by firefighters looking to see if anyones there.
Having stuff in your home is just not safe enough. I mean, if that’s like arguing “You don’t need home insurance because fires are rare”. Not a good idea to gamble if your precious pirated movies and cat photos are at risk.

Man, the hidden upside of Europe being largely deforested: not enough wood to build houses with.
Only the inner frames are wood here and still covered in plaster wall and such. Most parts of my house are not flammable, let alone a fire hazard.
