I agree and wish they would but the water table in Texas and Louisiana are pretty high so if they attempted to dig the lines, they would hit water pretty quick. For example, there’s a reason they don’t bury people in New Orleans and there are above ground tombs. I live down here and after consistent power failures I finally invested in a home generator. I hope it will increase my home value when I’m finally able to get out of here.
They often don’t. Water runs up through house’s attics.That’s why when it freezes people’s houses get water damage
