Those trying to avoid natural disasters and the fallout from climate change might want to move to the Southwest.

Counties in New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah have the lowest risk of environmental peril, according to a recent study from CoreLogic, a real estate data firm. The study analyzed the risk of natural disasters over the next 30 years, to the nation’s 154 million properties. Wildfires, tornadoes, inland flooding, severe thunderstorms, winter storms, earthquakes, hurricanes, and storm surges were included in the analysis.

“Generally, good elevation shields places from thunderstorms, wildfires, and flooding,” says John Rogers, chief innovation officer at CoreLogic.

Other factors—such as soil type, proximity to flammable brush, and building codes and types—also play a part.

It’s always fun to see what the homes renovated on reality television really sell for. Do the sale prices given on the show accurately reflect the true sale? Did some offers fall through? And does a reality TV makeover increase a home’s resale value?

One of the most transparent renovators on television is Tarek El Moussa, co-star of three HGTV shows: “Flip or Flop,” “Flipping 101,” and “The Flipping El Moussas.” He not only reveals his purchase price and the cost of the renovation but also what it should cost to sell the house (taking into account the marketing, commissions, and staging expenses).

El Moussa also discloses the finance, or “carrying” costs, on his properties. This comes down to the monthly interest paid to the lender. Short-term loans usually demand a higher interest rate. A quick turnaround renders a higher profit.

He also attaches his name and the show name to his listings, which could add sales appeal for El Moussa fans who want to buy his renovated residences.
