Thing I Don't Like

Controlled burns which I am unaware of before the ignition. Less than one mile from my house.

I guess "controlled" is the important term. If it stays controlled, it's probably good for you.

If you have that much fire fuel that close to your home you should rush out to thank the fire people for clearing it out before it got out of control.
