I built a risk map that adapts to your worldview

Hi I’m David, the creator of this app. I built this app because I was looking for a place to relocate to and buy a house. I ended up researching a bunch of weird things like mosquito density, freshwater proximity, radon levels, crypto friendliness, etc… I was not able to find a place that had all these in one place so I built it. Location Risks lets you choose the risks you care about and visualize them on an interactive map. You can toggle the “policy risk preference” globally or on individual risks to match your worldview. For example if you want more gun regulation, less regulated areas will show as red/purple. If you want less gun regulation, more regulated areas will show as red/purple.

I wanted the UI to be simple. The interactive map is the main focus and the other details can be minimized if desired. Pick the risks you care about, select your policy preferences, and see the colors on the map. You can click a district for more details and add them to a comparison list.

The biggest challenge was finding data. It’s very hard to find data in many countries at a district level for niche risks. Because of this I decided to build an AI feature. It can be used to get AI risk estimates for any district and risk combination. The results of each AI estimate gets added to the database for all future users to see with an AI confidence level.

Is anything confusing to you when navigating the site? Are there any risks I’m missing?
