I don't think it would be that big of an issue - honestly I think many cities large and small could handle something like that.
You shouldn't think. You think it's easy to bring in over 200,000 people overnight, give them shelter, food, and clothes and than on top of that get a hold of their records? Good luck.

No I don't think it's that easy. I do think that lots of cities could have done it, Los Angeles included.

I don't. If America's 4th largest city is already stretching its resources to the limit just imagine the confusion & chaos it would have caused in densely packed LA, Chicago, or NYC. They couldn't do it, sorry. None of those cities even offered assistance when it was needed the most.

Houston is also the closest large city. Would Houston offer the same help if a disaster happened in Oakland or San Diego? Be honest.
Matt I jumped all over this one poster in the Houston forum for posting a picture of the Rita evacuation representing it as indicative of normal Houston traffic. It is not!

Yes, whenever there is a natural disaster anywhere in the world there will be major relief efforts mounted in Houston. In this regard Houston is a very generous and caring city.
