We don’t have severe weather in the UK but we do have severe reactions to normal seasonal variations – if it snows a bit, the roads freeze over, all the schools shut, pipes freeze and burst leaving whole towns without water, same with electricity, and trains grind to a halt, if it’s windy it makes the front page news for days when leaves get on the track, if it’s hot the roads melt, the railway tracks buckle and everyone dies of heat stroke. National obsession you see, I think we’re just jealous of places with proper severe weather :1circling
Anything stopping you moving to the Bahamas then? I don’t get why you can’t buy a property and not just stay there – do you have a finite time to stay if you’re not a resident?
Florida has essentially the same weather and beaches as the Bahamas but is less expensive (slightly) and has a lot more elbow room.
You know what many of us in Florida day dream about? Cooler weather during the summer. So people in Orlando tend to want a second home up in the mountains where we can run away to during July and August.
Don’t forget us in the midwest…. damn look at that house flying through the air!! Tornados are wicked the last few yrs around the midwest.
Been living in the Caribbean for nearly 10 years now, would not live anywhere else. Curacao is so far south we are below the hurricane belt!

There’s also more official looking websites with similar information.
Bare in mind if you are american, the USA taxes you on citizenship and not residency. In that case the best option would be St Kitts and Nevis. If you buy a house of $350 000 or more you can then buy a passport/citizenship for $35 000.
Tornadoes do suck.
I used to live in Edmonton, my dad the genius set our townhouse on fire one night when I was still pretty young. The fire was huge and burned the place down. But it was an actual blessing in disguise.
After we moved the next friday which was known as black friday there a series of tornados that hit the exact same area killed 27 people, injured more than 300 people, destroyed more than 300 homes, and caused more than $330 million in property damage at four major disaster sites.
We’ve also had some tornados hit a small town north of here, but they really haven’t been bad these past couple of years. I also think they are nothing compared to hurricanes.
What drives me crazy, is whenever there’s a tornado warning, a lot of parents here seem to intentionally send their children out to play at the park. I think those parents are actually wishing for something.

That is horrible!! My 10yr son is scared anytime it just storms since the bad tornado we had last yr, we had to live in a hotel 2 hrs away for a week, it really sucked! I panic and make my kids head to the basement, I could never imagine making them go out to a park!
