Several reasons ...
1. It's very dry there
2. It's usually windy
3. There are laws that prevent people from clearing underbrush. This becomes fuel for fires.
4. There are many lightning strikes there, which start fires.

Because they have stupid laws about cutting brush and taking care of the land.
Now a political rant is called for against Socialist Democrats. But everybody needs to be spared that.

It has to do with the Pacific ocean currents and how they affect the weather patterns on the west coast.
