The Commerce roof problem, specifically
There is space between houses, which helps access and hurts nothing except the total area to cover. Commerce holds about 11,882 residents in Los Angeles County. Sitting around 19 miles back from the water softens the salt but not the onshore weather.
The problem that comes up first here is the autumn offshore winds, which find anything already loose. They also drive ember risk, which is why vent screening and Class A assemblies matter more here than the colour of the covering.
Behind it: shaded slopes that never really dry out. Damp that arrives every morning and leaves by lunchtime is worse for a roof than rain, because nothing ever fully dries between one and the next.
None of which is unusual for a roofer who works here every week. It is only unusual to a crew who does not.

Marine layer damp and slow drying

Ember and wildfire exposure
Most houses lost to wildfire are lost to embers arriving ahead of the fire, not to the fire itself.
