States That Might Be Relatively Safer
Interestingly, some research suggests that parts of the United States might experience lower levels of radiation exposure in certain nuclear scenarios.

Studies modeling wind patterns indicate that several East Coast states could receive significantly less fallout compared with the Midwest missile belt.

These include states such as:

Maine

New Hampshire

Vermont

Massachusetts

Pennsylvania

Florida

However, analysts stress that “safer” does not mean safe. Even regions with lower radiation exposure would still face serious consequences from nuclear war, including supply shortages, economic collapse, and environmental damage.
