An average of 15 earthquakes over 7 magnitude happen each year, so a little more than once a month. So nothing too out of the ordinary is happening, just the unfortunate location and conditions of the Turkey earthquake making more news.

In this case, there was an agreement in place for compensation, but a party was not properly compensated. The suit ended with that party receiving compensation similar to what was supposed to be received, accounting for the growth on value as well.

It's a bit more of a straightforward case as conditions for receiving said compensation were outlined in contract, with specific numbers and the value at the time and present day values are known.

The case of the army vet is not a fair compensation, but it's hard to compare to a case when a contract between 2 parties was established and agreed upon and included specific details outlining compensation.

Texas has its issues, sure, but this was a small failure that was fixed in a short window. The boil notice is issued by default when such issues occur until tests could be completed to confirm the water is safe. The water was tested to be safe and the notice was cancelled.
