The folks that did live in Picher were unable to get home insurance, due to the fact that most of the area sits atop old mines, and there has been speculation that a giant sink hole will appear. These folks have lost everything in this tornado, with no home owners insurance, I do not think they will be allowed to rebuild, even if they could find a way.
