Would YOU survive an alien invasion? New study finds residents of which states have the best chance
An ominous spike in UFO sightings has captured America’s imagination — but what state is safest to live in if aliens decide to invade Earth?
A new study has attempted to answer the question of which Virginia residents are most likely to survive an alien visitation.
According to researchers with njcasino.comthe chances of staying alive are determined by factors such as how much each state spends on defense, population density, and cover against incoming attacks in caves and forests.
The number of UFO sightings by state was also included in the survey, after a Pentagon chief recently admitted that hundreds of flying saucers have already been spotted “around the world.”
America’s recent obsession with alien invaders comes after intelligence officials made a series of startling revelations, with even Barack Obama admitting to seeing UFO images he “cannot explain.”
And if aliens made their arrival more invasive, those who want to live would have to head to Virginia to hedge their bets on survival.
Impressive military spending coupled with a small population size resulted in the Easy Coast metro coming out on top with a score of 8.04 out of 10.
Georgia and Massachusetts rounded out the podium, while New York’s expansive NYPD force helped the Big Apple take a close fourth place.
In addition to a large number of police officers, New Yorkers also enjoy more than 2,600 food and beverage outlets, which would surely help residents weather an alien apocalypse.
West Coast residents, however, will fare much worse, with Nevada registering the lowest survival rate at just 4.53 out of 10.
One of the main reasons for the state’s poor performance is the high number of UFO sightings, while it also lacks useful terrain such as caves and forests.
The wide-open plains of the West Coast also saw states like New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and Idaho fall to the bottom of the pack.
A myriad of apparent UFO sightings in recent years have led many to speculate whether an alien invasion is imminent — or whether one has quietly already happened
The study comes amid heightened interest in extraterrestrial activity in the US, with Congress hosting several high-profile hearings confirming the existence of “UAPs” – standing for unidentified aerial phenomenon.
Earlier this month, a Pentagon chief admitted at NASA’s first-ever public hearing that hundreds of UFOs have been spotted “around the world.”
Physicist Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), said, “We’re seeing these[‘metal spheres’]around the world, and we’re seeing these very interesting apparent maneuvers.”
And a top lawyer involved in bringing UFO whistleblowers to Congress has sensationally claimed that a crashed ship recovered by the US military “warped space-time” when picked up.
Daniel Sheehan says he was told the baffling story by a whistleblower who allegedly took part in an illegal undisclosed program to recover crashed non-human spacecraft.
He claims that when researchers entered the UFO, they found it to be “larger inside” than it initially appeared.

Nick Pope, a former Department of Defense UFO researcher, warned AZ Major Media the phenomenon is here to stay.
“The days when it was considered part fringe, part science fiction, and part conspiracy theory are over,” he said.
“UFOs are now being treated as a defense and national security issue, debated in the US Congress, and drawing the attention of the head of NASA.
It’s hard to say whether we’re seeing a real spike in UFO sightings – and if so, what this means – or whether there’s a higher proportion of sightings being reported, due to the current mainstream media coverage of this topic.
“The topic has moved out of the margins into the mainstream, leading to many more people speaking out about their own observations and encounters.
“Regardless of the truth about these various incidents, it focuses on the fact that UFO sightings – whatever the cause – have serious and profound defense, national security and aviation safety concerns.”
