No Hurricanes, No Tornadoes, No Earthquakes, No Snow Blizzards, No humidity,No crime, and not as hot as Phoenix. Good looking Latinas.Very Affordable. But a little boring compared to other cities its size.
Its still pretty hot, but hispanics rarely leave their babies in the car. Grandma is always taking care of them.
I moved from Houston to Washington DC this year and I never thought I'd have to deal with hurricanes here too. That too, it was a category one and did so much damage here (because of the high population density & concentration) whereas back in Houston a category one would be laughable.
There are lots of trees down and snapped, I saw this when I went outside this morning.

What about a drought?
My money would be on the "Great Lakes" area, more specifically Chicago, and to a lesser extent (given the title of the thread) Milwaukee.
They both sit on one of the BIGGEST supplies of fresh water in the entire WORLD. Limited chance for tornadoes. A limited chance for flooding. Not near any major fault lines. Forest fires are rare. No mud slides ever. No hurricanes. No typhoons. No tropical storms. Hurricanes only bring weather that the region is used to. Debilitating blizzards are rare.

Things are okay here in Fairfax county. A few trees down but the lights stayed on. I went into the office. Some of my coworkers are still in the dark though.
I'd say that no one is truly safe from natural disaster. Phoenix has really bad out of nowhere dust storms. Michigan has bad blizzards. I can't believe anyone would call the upper Midwest safe from a natural disaster. While snow is certainly very common there, it can still cause harm. I understand that snow isn't automatically a natural disaster. Blizzards kill people and at the very least cause power outages, though. Anywhere on the west coast is prone to earthquakes. Forest fires in the Rockies. Denver also has blizzards and ice storms. So yeah nowhere is SAFE, just some places have disasters less.

Am I missing anything?
I lived in the Midwest for a while and those ice storms are ferocious. Cars sliding around and hitting walls killing people, power out in homes for weeks at a time in single digit weather, and the inability to walk on a sidewalk without slipping and breaking your head. Then the tornadoes in the spring are horrible, not to mention the spring thaw that causes rivers to overflow banks and flood large areas.
I don't agree that the Midwest is safe.
