city of Rolling Hills Estates, Los Angeles County, California State, USA, in July 2023.

The landslide happened at Rolling Hills Estates in Los Angeles County in California in the United States on July 9, 2023

Rolling Hills Estates is collaborating with Los Angeles County agencies and the Red Cross to provide shelter for the affected residents, according to a statement on the city's website.
The city is also working closely with the LACFD and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department to monitor the situation in the affected area.

Southern California is susceptible to landslides due to its location on a major tectonic plate boundary and its geological complexity, as highlighted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the California Geological Survey.
The region experiences various types of landslides, including rapid debris flows triggered by heavy rainfall, according to the USGS report.
