I was reading the announcement by one of the towns in the area and Facebook responses. They said that power would remain out for who knows how long, that the main streets were destroyed and they barely made somewhat passable dirt roads, municipal water was out and well water should be considered unsafe, and so they strongly encouraged everyone to leave of they could possibly go elsewhere.
Replies from people seemingly actually from the community were basically saying they were sure if they left the federal government would eminent domain their land and they needed to stay to defend their property from those federal people.

They should hope!
If your house is under a foot of mud and the town destroyed, the government buying you out sounds like a win.
In fact, it’s a thing we do to prevent rebuilding in flood plains by stubborn people.
