I grew up in California and I always just assumed it was because we didn't have those scary tornadoes that people in some other states had to hide from.

The house I grew up in did have a basement, though. It was handy for storing a bunch of crap and was also where the radiator lived.

I don't actually have anything very useful to say in response to your question. Sorry.
