Sounds like back woods mentality. It is a few dollars more because they have a safe place in case of a storm, but we won't stay there because of the few extra dollars.
Cost is a big issue. For heaven's sake, schools in tornado alley don't have dedicated underground storm shelters because of cost. While it sounds like a major disaster on the news, tornados actually effect only a very very small land area at any time. Even if your area is under a tornado warning, the fact of the matter is only a small percentage of the area under that warning will suffer damage. Very few businesses in tornado prone areas offer underground shelters. If you are in Walmart or Home Depot of McDonalds during a tornado warning there isn't going to be any underground shelters for you to go to. At an RV park the best course of action is go to the interior area of a building, ground level. Tornados are a risk that really cannot be economically defended against completely, no different than Hurricanes, Floods, Volcanos, Avalanches and any other natural disaster that can strike.
