In the Alfred Hitchcock 1963's film "The Birds", quite simply, why do the bird attacks are concentrated on Bodega Bay?
Apart from the fact that they come in waves.

Perhaps the wild birds attacked the humans there as a punishment for keeping the Love Birds captive in a cage.
Plot device. And he liked the town; he had made other movies there.
The cool thing is that The Birds was based on a real episode. This wasn’t fiction.
Probably because he wanted to film there.
It was fiction. The Hitchcock movie The Birds is based on a short story by Daphne du Maurier(story) published in 1952 and set in Cornwall, England. The Wikipedia article mentions what gave the author the idea.
The story itself is a good creepy read. A lot of du Maurier’s fiction actually holds up well over time.
The structure of the Wikipedia link interferes with direct access because of the parenthetical at the end, but just click the ”(story)” link referring to du Maurier on the disambiguation page.
It is suggested but never confirmed that Melanie’s lack of moral character is to blame and has drawn them. I think the lack of explanation is really important. Had they wrapped up with a bow, it would be far less evocative.
