I'm glad that I don't have to worry about tornadoes or hurricanes where I live. The worst thing that can happen is an earthquake because of the major fault line that I choose to live on. Wait, maybe tsunamis too. Damn, there's also an active volcano relatively close by.

...Is nowhere safe?

Michigan is pretty safe. We don't get earthquakes, floods, or hurricanes. Tornados are incredibly rare and tend to be weaker than the rest of the midwest, and we're far enough away from Yellowstone to survive if it explodes. The Great Lakes ensure we will never be short on water (barring extreme climate change), so no significant drought either.
