I did more research on Italy but I had time to do so during the pandemic lockdown. Southern Italy has tornados but the homes are not wood framed houses and so they are built to last. The homes are practically fire proof and tornado proof.

I'll have to do more research on Costa Rica.

I still roughly two decades before I retire but I want to leave the U.S. right now.
