California Overview: Why Build Here with Containers

California is perhaps the most famous state in the US and has a culture all its own. From soaring mountains to expansive beaches, California is also a mecca for nature lovers.

However, California is also known for a somewhat stifling regulatory environment. And thanks to the threat of seismic activity, building codes in California are quite stringent as well.

Regulations for building in California are governed by the California Code of Regulations, Title 24, known as the California Building Standards Code. Local governments enforce these state-wide codes and can amend them as necessary for environmental conditions in their area. Additional oversight into related elements of building safety are provided by the California Department of Housing and Community Development.
