A devastating wildfire in New Mexico has potentially damaged or destroyed over 1,000 residential properties, with a combined reconstruction cost value of nearly $370 million. According to property data firm CoreLogic, the Blue 2, Salt, and South Fork Fires started in late May and burned thousands of acres in the state. The fires have already destroyed roughly 1,500 structures, killed at least two people, and forced thousands to evacuate. The full extent of the damage is still being assessed, with temperatures rising and fuels drying, leading to increased fire activity.
