Question

Does it help for a tornado not to hit you if you live downhill from the rest of the houses?

Answer 1

You would think so huh? not necessarily. If your house is below the other ground level in your area but not in a valley which could create a wind tunnel causing suction you might have the upper hand when it comes to 'safest house' but it's the high winds and flying debris that cause the damage so I wouldn't count on that alone if bad weather occurs.
