I chose to live in Michigan mostly for climate crisis and natural disaster reasons. One of the largest fresh bodies of water, no earthquakes, hardly any tornadoes, no hurricanes, ocean levels won’t impact directly, forest fires aren’t common in the scale of California. Projections show it will still be farmable in 50 years. The downside is it’s a Midwest flyover sate, and the winters can be tough. The lack of sun and abundance of snow can be impactful on mood.
Michigan is where my research led me on this. In several ways looks an improvement to my current life in Kansas.
Summer is a great time to check it out.
non-coastal new england - especially VT, Maine and Western Mass are some of the safest areas based on articles I have read.
