In my area of the country almost everyone has an underground LP gas tank. We have propane heat, stove, clothes dryer, even a line run out to our BBQ so I never have to run to get a portable tank filled. Gas heat is hotter than electric and more comfortable. I would say everyone in my neighborhood has the "mushroom" tank lid in their side yard. Any appliance that works on natural gas can be adapted for LP use. Natural gas is not available in our area only propane. We get a delivery monthly from October through April then the April delivery lasts until the following October. Just as safe as electricity.
