I’ve seen it happen multiple times. Most notably where a small town was wiped off the mountainside by a landslide. My senior geologist suggested they rebuild some miles away on a more stable site, but they insisted on rebuilding rigjt where the old town was.
About 10 years later, the town was wiped off the mountainside by another landslide.
So much tax money is wasted on cities built on unsuitable land, New Orleans being a prime example.
