What are the states with the lowest homeless populations per capita? California, New York and Florida have the largest homeless populations in the nation. Those three states alone comprise nearly half of the total U.S. homeless population. On the other hand, North Dakota, Wyoming and South Dakota have the smallest homeless populations, according to the LendingTree analysis.
What are the states that have the fewest gang members per capita? California, Nevada, Idaho, New Mexico, and Illinois have the most gang members for every 1,000 citizens of the state. Because California, Nevada, and Illinois have major cities, the amount of gang activity would be expected to be higher. New Mexico has been the focus of an FBI investigation of gang activity. Probably the most surprising state on the list is Idaho. There has been a growing gang presence in the state for the past few years. Many of these gangs originated in the state’s prisons, although there are members of national and local gangs as well. Are you kidding me? New York barely registers on this map, and Florida is somewhere in the middle.
There are dinosaurs there! Komodo dragons land. Not even a house or a place to stay for humans. Not even the water is safe! Breathtaking nonetheless.
Someone mentioned Duolingo in one of the threads here, so I started using in two days ago. They started me on Lesson 9, but so far, I'm not learning anything new...
I posted this in my other thread when I meant to post it it this one... The Aiguille du Midi is a 3,842-metre-tall mountain in the Mont Blanc massif within the French Alps. It is a popular tourist destination and can be directly accessed by cable car from Chamonix that takes visitors close to Mont Blanc.
Which states have the fewest hurricanes and tornadoes? 1. Michigan Located in the Midwest, Michigan is one of the safest states from natural disasters as shown by data from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Michigan is generally safe from hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes. Events are still possible as the state has seen some earthquakes and tornadoes but of less severity than other parts of the country. 2. Minnesota Also located in the Midwest, Minnesota is unlikely to see events such as hurricanes. Minnesota has been subjected, however, to tornadoes and flooding in recent years. Minneapolis-St. Paul is considered to be one of the safest places from natural catastrophes. 3. Illinois Illinois is unlikely to experience natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, or tornadoes, or droughts. The state, however, does still experience heat waves, extreme cold, and flooding on occasion. 4. Vermont Part of New England, Vermont is situated at the northern border of the United States. Vermont is a forest landscape with many mountains. Its location and topography defend it from many natural disasters. Additionally, the state is known for its financial position to take care of its people in the event of a natural disaster and is one of the top-ranked states for emergency preparedness. 5. Ohio Another Midwest state, Ohio is known to be relatively safe from natural disasters. The cities of Cincinnati, Dayton and Cleveland are among the safest cities in the country for natural disasters. Because of Ohio’s proximity to tornado alley, it sees a few tornadoes per year. 6. Colorado Ranked one of the most beautiful states in the country, Colorado has a ton of forests and mountains, mostly covered in snow during the winter months. Threats such as hurricanes, earthquakes, droughts, and tornadoes are minimal. Wildfires, however, can be frequent and intense. 7. Maryland Maryland is generally safe from natural disasters, with storms and blizzards being the most common events. Maryland can experiences floods, however, they are not as frequent or as serious as in other parts of the country/ 8. Maine Maine is the northernmost and easternmost state on the East Coast. The state is far enough north where it does not experience the wrath of hurricanes that the rest of the East Coast can experience below it. Maine, however, can experience intense snow events and summer storms that include thunder, lightning, and flooding. 9. New Hampshire Vermont and Maine’s neighbor New Hampshire is also relatively safe from natural disasters. New Hampshire is far enough north that hurricanes generally lose their intensity before reaching the state. Flooding and snowstorms are the two major events to look out for in New Hampshire. The state is also one of the best ranked for emergency preparedness. 10. Montana Situated in the west and along the Canadian border is Montana. Montana features both the Rocky Mountains and the Great Plains and is one of the safest states from natural disasters. It is generally safe from hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornadoes, however, it does experience flooding. With that said, there have only been five significant floods in Montana in the past century. ~worldpopulationreview.com The Safest Places in America: Live Here If You’d Rather Skip the Natural Disasters By Clare Trapasso Mar 23, 2023 Counties in New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah have the lowest risk of environmental peril, according to a recent study from CoreLogic, a real estate data firm. The study analyzed the risk of natural disasters over the next 30 years, to the nation’s 154 million properties. Wildfires, tornadoes, inland flooding, severe thunderstorms, winter storms, earthquakes, hurricanes, and storm surges were included in the analysis. ~realtor.com worldpopulationreview.com disagrees... The states that are the most prone to natural disasters are California, Texas, Oklahoma, Washington, Florida, New York, New Mexico, Colorado, Oregon, and Louisiana. California has experienced over 280 federally declared disasters since 1953, usually wildfires, floods, and earthquakes. Texas has had over 250 federally declared disasters since 1953, most of which have fires, floods, and hurricanes. (Note that by mentioning Colorado, worldpopulationreview contradicts it's own list from up above!)
