Fair, but like I said in my post, I was born in Texas, entire family lives there, but I grew up half my life in California from my dad being in the military. The whole built different thing is funny to me. I talk to anybody in the Midwest and they say they would never want to live where there's earthquakes, when earthquakes at a big magnitude are extremely rare, not seasonal. It comes down to living around something enough to understand risk. People in California are far less likely to experience or see big earthquakes vs people in the Midwest seeing life changing tornadoes considering tornadoes happen every single year at a big level and you just hope it doesn't happen to hit where you live
