I lived in "Tornado Alley" for years, and now I've moved to "Hurricane Alley." Usually the weather's fine, and living here is not a big deal. We're just more likely to feel the effects of big storms than people in other regions, but it doesn't affect our daily lives. If I lived elsewhere, I could be in an earthquake, a huge blizzard, in the path of wildfires, etc. No place is perfect. Plus, Hurricane Alley and Tornado Alley encompass HUGE tracts of land. If it was really unsafe to live there, much of the US would be considered uninhabitable.
I don't know why people live in Death Valley, unless it's just that they like a challenge. I'd rather live in Death Valley than on Cereal Killer Street. My cereal is too important to me!

That's where our crops come from, so someone has to live there, and I don't think that anyone really lives's in death valley, or wait I think I remember a story of someone living there, maybe they really hate snow, someone not from the US probably is going to think that we think cereal killer means someone who kills cereal.

It's more exciting than the street I used to live on which was called Boring Street in Terre Haute, IN. Now I live close to Hurricane Alley and live a far more exciting life. That's why.

what's in a name? first of all, it's SERIAL, not CEREAL...
i happen to live in 'tornado alley'. i've seen 2 tornados in my life and spent a lot of time in college being bussed to various communities so we could help in cleanup after they had sustained severe tornado damage. I love Kansas. I love when we have unsettled weather. besides, this is where family has been forever. I lived on the east coast for many years and on the west coast for a few... i came back to kansas. it's a GREAT place to raise kids!

Does anyone actually live in Death Valley?

because with the soaring prices of houses in comparison to working wages, and people needing a place to live people will roll the dice and take their chances on a home thats potentially a natural diaster casualty. i for one would rather pay 1500 dollars a month for a three bedroom house than pay 1500 dollars a month for a two bedroom apartment

Heck no would I buy a house there. I like normal street names like Maple Street.

Mmmm. I'm always a little puzzled myself when I see documentaries about tornados and there's a woman crying and saying "Yeah, we had a tornado last year, killed all the livestock. Year before that my husband Jeb got took up by one and we found his body 14 miles away."
Why the f*ck don't they just move?

i don't think anyone lives in death valley, except for the griswold's cousin eddy and his family. the u.s. does have plenty of risky places to live - hurricanes in florida and the gulf coast, wildfires and mud slides in california, tornadoes in the heartland, arctic cold in the north states, gang bangers and chollo locos in the ghetto...

Some of their reasons they moved in probably due to family, jobs, the view, and so on.
They probably don't move out since those places are their homes, they probably won't move out even if there's a giant ugly pizza on top of their homes.
