Exposure to a range of hazards is a fact of life, but risk and vulnerability varies based on where you live, the places you frequent and your associated socio-economic characteristics. Many hazards trigger community responses that involve evacuation of people and property, a proven action that reduces the loss of life and injury. Effective and efficient evacuation requires many interdependent operations, including community notification, transportation assistance, management of traffic flows and safe locations to harbor people. However, this must be focused to target those areas that are or could be in danger. Methods to both formalize and define critical areas, or clusters, for evacuation are detailed. Assessment of evacuation vulnerability in coastal Santa Barbara is highlighted, demonstrating the heterogeneous risk that communities face due to inherent bottlenecks in transportation infrastructure.
