20 years after the Chernobyl disaster the level of radiation was still high enough to give you a good chance of cancer if you went to live there for a few years.
I don’t know how much radiation these “tactical” weapons release, but if it’s comparable to Chernobyl, even if the buildings were not originally damaged, I don’t know how fit they would be for living after being abandoned for 30 or 40 years.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki is currentlt livable because the bomb was detonated in the sky, the radiation disappates quickly.
In constrast, Chernobyl had more fuel and since the power plant was on the ground, it contaminated a lot of the soil, there fore, it’s gonna take much much longer before Chernobyl is ever livable again.
A tactical nuke is a bomb that will detonate in the air, and since its “tactical”, its gonna have much less yield. Its gonna be become livable again even quickly than Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

“Eventually” might be a long time with radiation.
