Where are there no natural disasters?

Question

The midwest can have tornadoes, the Gulf of Mexico area can have hurricanes, California can have earthquakes, etc... Either in the US or in the World, where are there no natural disasters? This can include extreme temperatures that causes deaths as well... Does such a place exist where nobody dies due to the weather? I live in Arizona and it's pretty disaster-free, but we can have extreme heat and flash floods and people can die in small numbers due to those.

Answer 1

I live in Cedar City, Utah, which is in southern Utah, and it's pretty mild here as far as weather and disasters. We did just get 12 inches of snow, but I'd hardly call that a disaster. We rarely get storms of any kind here though, no threat from tsunamis as the ocean is 6 hours away, and all the volcanoes around here are extinct. The only thing we have to worry about is a fairly dormant fault line that goes through the middle of town that could come to life, produce a huge quake, and KILL US ALL!!! I don't see that happening any time soon though.

The guy above me is right though, no one is safe from a meteor hit, even though the odds of that happening are extremely unlikely!

Answer 2

Phoenix probably comes pretty close to be the safest place to live in the USA from natural disasters. The central states of the USA are relatively free from tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis. However, if extreme heat and cold are risk factors, that leaves a temperate zone in the central states, and Phoenix is just south of it. Perhaps Sedona, the famed Vortex Country just north of Phoenix, is the ideal place to live? Taos in New Mexico, maybe? Is that why people living in those places are so loopy?

Answer 3

Even if you found some place that is supposedly safe from all the aforementioned risks, a meteorite could strike there. There is no place on earth where a meteorite cannot land. That would also be a natural disaster, so there is therefore no place on earth 100% safe from natural disasters. (Lightning and earthquakes can strike pretty much anywhere, too.)

Answer 4

When I had studied geology, the teacher said just because an area may never had experienced a natural disaster, it does not mean it will never happen.

Answer 5

There is no such place. Every part of the world is susceptible to bad weather.

Answer 6

whilst i replaced into 10, my family members and that i experienced a type 4 typhoon. The typhoon replaced into initially predicted to hit extra north human beings, yet made a final minute precise-hand turn in direction of our direction. luckily, we had sufficient time to %. maximum of our efficient issues and deliver them to our grandma's abode, the place we hid in her closet after evacuating our very own residence, that have been given destroyed. My grandma's abode in basic terms suffered minor roof harm, yet capability outages plagued the section. After weeks of having to stay off a generator, and without our very own residence, we ended up shifting thoroughly.
