How does lightning not strike homes more often? Houses and apartments are everywhere , surely some stray lighting strikes should hit them and cause them to burn up. Even if they’re not the most conductive objects in the area, shouldn’t at least more be struck?

Well, over the years home’s have been built to not attract lighting. And also electrtions put most of the major electrical things (like a huge wire that splits off into different directions to give power to all the homes in the vicinity like a condo complex) away from homes to greatly decrease the chance of a home being struck. I’m not the best at explaining so if there’s anything that you did not understand in this comment please feel free to ask me and I will explain it better.
