The "Safest" States in the U.S.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency keeps track of the number of declared emergencies in each state. This doesn't exactly equate with least dangerous places to live, but it is interesting to note that since 1953, Rhode Island, Utah, and Wyoming have declared the fewest number of disasters with eight each.

So, here now for your consideration, the ten states that have declared the fewest natural disasters since 1953. Just remember -- as they say in the stock market, past performance doesn't guarantee future results.

   1. Rhode Island
   2. Utah
  3. Wyoming
   4. District of Columbia
   5. Delaware
   6. Connecticut
   7. South Carolina
   8. Colorado
   9. Nevada
  10. Montana

Hey! Can one of the moderators change the spelling of this thread? I can't do it.
Should be "safest" not "safeest". Duh.

Hmmm, this is assuming that everything happening in the District of Criminals is an UNnatural disaster, of course.
It's not that people are dumber, it's that stupidity used to be more painful.

And since WHEN did the District of Criminals become a state?   ::)

I'm including the entire east coast, actually... with California tossed in for flavor. :)

Sorry, Mama,

My remark was aimed at the FEMA data crunchers, not your reply.

See you in June.  ~W~

LOL  Rhode Island??? 

It makes more sense to compare it to Cheyenne rather than any of the REAL states!! The whole of New England is smaller than Wyoming.
