Every region has its problems. One thousand people every day relocate to Florida.
When you move to Florida, don't live right on the water if you dont want to worry about hurricanes (i.e. stay off the beach, stay off the banks of the Indian River lagoon). Make sure your house has a good roof with construction done with post Andrew building code== be sure its in good repair-- in my area, it was the older homes with older roofs that had the most problem. Buy hurricane shutters for all your windows.
Consider evacuating if you hate being in the heat with no electricity.
California's earthquakes look more dicey to me as do the Midwests tornadoes. I lost my house in Jeanne, and I still live in Florida. Its also a great business climate. The schools are rated as among the worst in the nation. The college system, however, is rated well (UF Gainesville).
Charlotte NC looks like one of the best areas of the nation to live in, in my opinion, if you are looking for relocation.
