It varies widely across the country. You have to remember how large the US is. Here in the central part of the country the only real issues are tornados and flooding. Tornados are totally random. You can live in "tornado alley" and never see, let alone get hit by, a tornado for years. Flooding is pretty avoidable, don't live in a flood plain. But for people on the coasts...totally different. San Diego, Pacific Coastline. Here all we really worry about is fire and earthquakes, although I don't think the county in particular has had a really bad earthquake in as long as I can remember. Fires on the other hand can be a real problem due to the dry brush and people generally being morons.
I guess there is also the potential for tsunamis, but due to the Pacific coast structure, it is less of a concern this far south unless something happens right off the coast. |
