I think in some places this would be pretty dangerous... floods, earthquakes, etc?

I'd go for an underground house here we don't get many earthquakes and they are pretty small at that (Nor-CA) but it would need to be over engineered to make me happy.


An underground house on the top of a big hill in a non-earthquake zone and non flood plain, sure. Lol.


And non-fire zone smile

SWEEET!
