Andy is correct, for some reason, basements are not common in Texas or Oklahoma(where I grew up). My aunt in Wichita, Kansas has one though.

Being in tornado alley, you would think basements would be common, but storm cellers(essentially small outside basements) are used instead.

One thing that is common in newer homes in Texas(much to one of my friends recent pain) is putting water pipes in attics. Not good when freezing weather arrives.

Of course, you may get lucky(or unlucky according to my wife) and find a TV shop in a small town where the owner has just about every TV left at his shop since 1946(+broken TVs from other shops). This happened to me several years ago and I am still recovering. I wish AudioKarma was around then-possibly I could have saved a few more sets.
