    homes are built on land that is prone to both extreme heat and extreme

    severe heat, and 64% of homes are at risk of flooding within the next
    three decades. Along with 9.2% of homes standing vacant, looming
    concerns run the gamut in the Space City."

    Portland was rated as #98 riskiest out of 170.

    Well, hell. I'm not even on the list, and the nearest one is 100 miles
    away ranked at 127. I think I'll unload my gun, remove my hearing
    aids, and take a nap.
