Why might people live in an area where a natural disaster has happened

There are many reasons to why people choose to live in areas who have a history with natural disasters. One reason can be because they are poor. Lower in-come people might not have enough money to move to a place with less of a chance of being hit by a natural disaster. People might also live in a hazardous area because they have a job there. Places like Indonesia and Philippines get hit by natural disasters often, but some people choose to live their because of farming. There are 3 types of approaches to why people live in a hazardous area. One is a Fatalistic Approach. This is when a person has no other option but to live in a certain area. It could be because of economic reasons. They also like to think like, 'if it happens it happens.' Another way is an Acceptance Approach. This is when someone chooses to live in a certain area because it is a sight for tourism or because of their job. It can also be due to natural resources and energy availability. The Adaptation Approach is the final reason why people would live in a hazardous area. It mainly consist of reasons like the technology, prediction, prevention, and protection. A way to look at why people would live in a certain area is because there really isn't anywhere on earth that has no chance being hit by a natural disaster. Although, some countries do have less of a chance, while some are at greater risks. Different people have different reasons why to live where they live. It could be because they are used to the culture and like the scenery. Either way, people choose to live in certain areas because they have a reason.
