A little bit of "fact" on sink holes and why it happens and the states where it happens frequently.
Which areas are most at risk for sinkholes? | American Geosciences Institute
Note this paragraph "The most damage from sinkholes tends to occur in Florida, Texas, Alabama, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Pennsylvania." Notice that Pennsylvania is the only northern state in this list.
I lived in Tennessee for 34 years, sink holes happened frequently. I lived in a subdivision outside the city limits in the county where there was a farm behind my property. Lived there for 20+ years and a sink hole opened up right on the edge of my yard in the farm owner's field. There were a few that appeared on streets in the downtown area where a street water drainage or potable water pipe broke. Because it didn't happen back home in a state not on the list, doesn't mean that faulty infrastructure in Florida is the reason it happens there.
