Methodology

We used Google Trends to research the most common holiday disasters with the highest search interest by state. We analyzed 2020 data for the holiday months of November-December using 18 different types of commonly searched home disasters during the holiday months. We then calculated the average search interest and the states with the highest total search volume were elected as the ones who experience those holiday disasters the most.
