Walking along the bank of the Guadalupe River, Scott Allen reflects on the past year since the floods ravaged his home in Kerr County. Despite the challenges, Allen and his wife have found solace in their faith, which has carried them through the difficult times.
Rebuilding and Recovery
Allen’s home, like many in Kerr County, suffered significant damage from the floods. With over $1 billion in reported damage, the community has come together to support each other in the recovery efforts. The Allens have grown accustomed to living alongside construction as they work to rebuild their home.
According to the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country, 228 households have either returned to permanent housing or are on an active pathway to recovery. As the community continues to heal, residents like Allen are focusing on the future, grateful for the support of their neighbors and the strength of their faith.
