>>11039735I was born to agree with this post. I have lived in Tokyo, Santiago, a few places in Texas, and a few northern regions Real Winter™. Everyone build for the climate they expect, and gets fucked by outliers. Being built for floods AND fires AND earthquakes AND 40+ temperatures AND -20 temperatures is insanely expensive and no one would do it.
People in most of the US would flip shit at a minor earthquake, and they would have to spend the next year inspecting infrastructure. In Japan or Chile, you are gently rocked awake by a small one and think "On shit! Uh... wait... okay not a bad one. Back to sleep."
In parts of Texas, you get a light snow once every 5 years at best, and only at night, so pipes aren't built for long, hard freezes (including gas pipes used for heating). On the other hand, take the heat from a normal day in most of Texas, from May to September, and put it in many northern places? There would be bodies.
