I was in the Mission District of San Francisco for a bit. Here's what it looked like during the 1906 earthquake (3000 fatalities). Building damage was more from fires than the earthquake:

Hopefully the New Madrid Fault Zone doesn't produce a major earthquake anytime soon.

The 1811-12 New Madrid earthquakes were felt in my area, but didn't cause any damage.

New earthquake maps show Charleston still in the bull's-eye on East Coast - Post and Courier

Is that why you're eyeing Mobile as a possible relocation option? The risk in Savannah is much lower than Charleston, but not quite as low as Mobile is. Mobile is more prone to flooding, though.

Speaking of earthquakes, apparently there's such a thing as "slow" earthquakes that release a decent amount of energy but over several weeks rather than in a few moments, and one of them is happening right now under Vancouver Island on the Cascadia fault (the one that can produce the really big earthquakes): https://pnsn.org/blog/2016/01/07/slo...ncouver-island

Won't work, I'm afraid. She'll run off with a more handsome bloke while you're stuck spanking the monkey.
