If you are a person who typically worries about hurricanes, floods, tornados, asteroids, sun spots, etc. then yes...you need to worry. The fact is sinkholes, while more likely with a building base such as Florida has, don't happen as often as you might think. Still, if you're a person who can't help but worry then you'll worry about this along with the other things I mentioned. Sinkholes aren't predictable. Google their cause and get educated. If you're still worried and can't handle the stress see your doc and take anxiety meds. If that isn't an option then move to a state with a granite base beneath the soil...like New Hampster, Maine or Vermont. They have other worries, but few sinkholes in their mountains.
