Map reveals best places to live in the US if nuclear war breaks out
AKA real estate brokers reveal why they are NOT reliable nuclear war strategy 'experts'. More than enough bombs to hit every single area identified as safe. For example a string of detonations down the Mississippi from Minneapolis to New Orleans takes care of the 'buy homes along the Mississippi' recommendation. And so on.

As fears of a nuclear apocalypse and World War 3 abound, some prospective homebuyers in the US may want to reconsider the locations they’re looking for property in.
Real estate experts have concluded that the places in America that are best suited for nuclear war survival are in remote and rural areas with warm climate and access to water and farmland.
They have recommended against densely populated urban cities and places with mass transportation, shopping centers and other convenient amenities that are traditionally desirable for living.
‘In the event of nuclear war the location of your home can determine your chances for survival,’ Andrew Ragusa, who is the CEO of REMI Realty on Long Island, New York, told the Daily Mail.

‘What used to be important when purchasing a home such as great school district, close to shopping, and near public transportation, has now changed to warm climate, access to food, and access to water.’
Parts of California, Florida and Texas that are away from their big cities like San Francisco, Miami and Houston are ideal because they are near water and have good weather.
‘If you’re near water you will always be near food and water that can be ingested after it has been desalinated,’ said Ragusa.
The broker also advised on buying homes in states along the Mississippi River including Arkansas, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee and Wisconsin.
Russia escalated nuclear threats in the midst of its war on Ukraine. North Korea’s nuclear arsenal has also been growing. Last week, were elevated as the Doomsday Clock was set at 90 seconds to midnight and the threat of nuclear catastrophe had ‘never been so great’.
Another real estate expert, Agent Editorial Board chair Jasen Edwards, suggested the Midwest and southeast due to their access to fresh water and farmland, and the Rocky Mountains which are difficult for nuclear warheads to reach.
‘The elevation of the Rocky Mountains means that fallout would be dispersed more quickly and assisted by higher winds, which could help to minimize any radioactive material reaching the area,’ Edwards told the Daily Mail.
He also noted Nebraska’s ‘geographical location offers protection against nuclear fallout’.
The map compiled by the news outlet shows that the real estate experts’ recommended places to buy are away from nuclear targets and the roughly 90 active nuclear plants across the country.
