Hello,
We are looking for a possible relocation from long and cold winters!
I really want to explore southern states along the coast but I am not comfortable with the potential hurricanes. Is there a state or part of a state with considerably less risk of hurricanes in Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi?
Thank you for your help!

Tampa has about the least. Last real hit was in 1921.

Where are you relocating from. Reason why I ask is because you may be used to strong storms and winds. If that's the case than a Tropical Storm or Cat 1 wont phase you.


Just live far enough away from the coast and you'll be fine. A lot of the stats out there show what strength it was at "landfall" and how many have hit the coast.


Here's a cool site to play with..


I chose 100 mile radius of Jackson Mississippi. These are hurricanes that had a path through this area. Only 7 hit as Cat 1 or stronger since 1800s.


But note.. when it crossed within the radius 4 of them weakened to Tropical Storm strength by time it got to central Mississippi.
