Wow that’s a much different picture than I expected …… I assume permafrost melting means ground gets soggy so you need some sort of foundation rework, including on roads. However the article focussed on “slumps” which seem like landslides under a different name. If your town was built on a frozen swamp, you could probably build on posts or something. However if your town slides into the ocean, you can’t really recover

Yeah, inland areas transition to a thermokarst landscape, while places next to the ocean can just disappear entirely.
