Australia is a part of the commonwealth not a commonwealth. We do have tornados but they mostly occur in the central areas where the population is small so therefore you hear very little about them.We have small tornadoes called Willy Willies.I saw one last week in Beeaufort, western Victoria.Why don't I care? Because it missed you. If it had hit me (it was only 50 metres away) I might have got a bit dusty.I'm glad you're concerned for my well being

Most states build wooden houses...WA builds houses almost entirely out of bricks.

Yes in Queensland it is mostly woodenframe houses on stilts with plasterboard walls inside.Elsewhere it is generally the woodframe, single outer brick veneer design and more recently, steel inner frame due to problems with termites.
Houses are silly. I want a nice centrally heated cave, with all the amenities (ie: Net)
Coober Pedy is a town in northern South Australia, 846 kilometres north of Adelaide on the Stuart Highway. At the 2006 census its population was 1,916 (1084 males, 832 females, including 268 indigenous Australians). The town is known as the opal capital of the world because of the quantity of precious opals that are mined there. The name 'Coober Pedy' comes from the local Aboriginal term kupa-piti, which means "boys' waterhole"
It would be nice to live underground, although I think I would like to live in the side of a hill more for the natural light.
