re: Safest weather area in America? Where would that be?

Somewhere like North Georgia or Arkansas or North Carolina where its very hilly is pretty damn safe from Tornadoes, you are inland enough to get hurricane protection for the most part.
Most of our state just got hit by an EF4

Look scarier than they really are. Will just knock down some trees maybe and dump a bunch of dust/dirt everywhere. Blow around patio furniture. Make your pool all dirty. I will say you shouldn’t drive in them cause you have very little visibility so that part can be scary.
It won’t destroy your home

Spent 2 years in San Diego. Awesome weather. Unfortunately it’s in California.

Coastal Oregon
Maybe like Kentucky? Not sure how many tornadoes they have though, but otherwise moderate temps, far enough inland that hurricanes aren’t an issue, east coast so fires aren’t a major issue

Added Forrest fires and tsunamis.

Safe weather in US.

Where in the United States has the safest weather? No hurricanes, no tornadoes, no foods, and no earthquakes.
While no place in the United States can be completely free of natural disasters, some regions have a lower risk of certain types of severe weather events.
One area that may fit your criteria is the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, which includes states such as Washington and Oregon. This area typically experiences mild temperatures and relatively low levels of precipitation, with fewer occurrences of hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods. While the region is not completely free of earthquakes, it does not experience the same level of seismic activity as other parts of the country.
However, it's important to note that weather patterns can be unpredictable and severe weather events can occur in any region. It's always a good idea to stay informed and prepared for potential hazards, no matter where you live.

Include no Forrest fires and tsunamis.
The Pacific Northwest region I mentioned earlier is still a good option in terms of minimizing the risk of natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, and even forest fires.
However, it's important to note that forest fires can occur in any region that has forests, and the risk of wildfires can increase during dry and hot conditions. While the Pacific Northwest is not immune to forest fires, the region typically experiences more moderate temperatures and humidity levels, which can help reduce the risk of these events.
As for tsunamis, the Pacific Northwest is located along the Pacific Ocean and is at risk for these types of events. However, many communities in the region have implemented early warning systems and evacuation plans to help mitigate the risk of damage and loss of life.
Overall, while no place in the United States can be completely free of natural disasters, the Pacific Northwest region may still be a good option if you are looking for an area with a lower risk of hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, earthquakes, forest fires, and tsunamis.

North GA in the mountains is pretty shielded. North GA doesn’t get much snow, it’s far enough inland that hurricanes aren’t a issue and we are sheltered from storms

Southeast AZ fits these requirements. Although, I did experience a minor earthquake there, but they're extremely rare. Northshorebamaman can confirm. He's there now.

Volcanoes, hurricanes, floods, fires. Just a few of the happenings in recent years.

The stretch from central VA down through central and western NC into upstate SC and N GA has relatively limited extreme weather events. Maybe get limited snow once/year, hurricanes are mostly weakened by the time they hit, very rare tornadoes or earthquakes, etc.
The biggest risk in that area is tropical systems from the gulf that turn into huge rain events, but floods in those areas are still relatively infrequent and confined to flood zones.

Eastern Oregon and Washington, although it does get cold there. Dry, so not a ton of snow

Right after I moved to Richmond there was a 4 month period where we saw a hurricane/tropical storm, tornado outbreak, blizzard, and earthquake.
