Climate change is an increasing danger for mobile homeowners in the US, where there has been a big increase to 2,447 mobile homeowners over the past few decades. They are particularly vulnerable to the rising number of tornadoes and scientists predict that climate change will make these storms more common. Federal, state and local policymakers have been asked to consider alternative housing to reduce vulnerability for those living in this type of housing. Between 1980 and 2014 there were about 9 million tornado-related deaths in the US. On average there are about 150 tornadoes in Texas every year and 80 in Kansas.
