Is there some place safe from the onslaught of dangerous natural disasters pummeling the United States? Is there a “safe state” to avoid disaster? What states have the highest risk for disaster? What states can you live to lessen your risk? No place is completely safe from disaster, be it hurricane, forest fire, earth quake, flooding, and other forms of extreme weather, but a certain area of the country does have a lower risk–THE MIDWEST. Beyond risk of natural disasters, not all areas of the country are the same when it comes to risk, expected annual loss, social vulnerability and community resilience. Find out who different areas of the nation stack up when it comes to facing some of the toughest challenges mother nature throws at us.
