Wrightsville, in New England, especially if Ellery Queen was in town.
First, I’m glad to know that eight Dopers will survive the apocalypse, even if one of them is Skald. (bam zing!)
Second, yes the Smurf world does have human women, given that it’s the same world as Johann and Pewee. I vaguely remember a nice-looking redhead whom they rescued. I think she then married a prince, but who knows? Maybe that didn’t work out.
And finally to the point, I’d want to avoid Miranda from “Serenity”. The Reavers suffered some losses sure, but I bet there’s still a few about. Being raped, killed, and eaten (not necessarily in that order) does not appeal to me. On the other hand, there’s an off chance that Serenity would come back to rescue us, and then we’d have front row seats for season two. That might make it worth it.
There is no effing way Mal is going back to Miranda. Anyone who thinks otherwise is high on something.
All these fantasy spots like Middle Earth, Narnia, and so forth would such because of a lack of basic healthcare. Good luck with that impacted wisdom tooth in five years.
While I concur that the Marvel and DC universe are slightly hazardous I would definitely avoid The Authority Universe.
It’s pretty safe if you’re not white though. Every single victim and every single murderer has been white. Was the subject of a very recent controversy.
Edited to add: Oh, we have a new euphemism for being fired. The producer will “step down” at the end of this series. Let’s see how that sounds, “I swore at the boss and was stepped down, so I need to find a new job.”
The Blasted Lands from The Talisman.
The U.S. during its theocratic interregnum.
The Everfree Forest (My Little Pony: FiM). For one thing, that chicken/snake creature lives there! And I don’t want to turn into a stone creature and have a snail go over my eyeball!
The real world behind the Matrix.
Sunnydale. Demons and vampires everywhere. Not to mention incompetent police and evil politicians. Oh and it sits right on a Hellmouth.
The universe of the Quatermass stories seems nearly Lovecraftian in it’s inhospitableness to humanity. A hallmark of British science-fiction in general.
The world of the Mistborn trilogy, since it’s filled with constantly falling ash, a filthy gray post-(magic)apocalypse dystopic medieval hellhole, and probably not even survivable in the long run. The people were modified to be able to survive in those conditions, I’m not. The sky is red, the plants gray, the food gritty, the people miserable.
Hey, I live in Topeka! Literally. It has Fred Phelps and if I can manage that I can manage just about anything.
But it has a superhot vampire slayer.
*Jonathan: We’re proud to say that the class of '99 has the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in Sunnydale history.

Pass.
Annie Wilkes’ house.
Jame Gumb’s basement.
Elm Street.
Being alive in the Battlestar Galactica universe probably wasn’t a barrel of laughs. Even if you were a Cylon.
its ok brony, Fluttershy would just shame the cockatrice into fixing you, and use her stare.
Anywhere near Quahog, Rhode Island.
The world(s) of Lexx. The Cluster. The Light Universe. The Dark Zone (us). Slavery, starvation, cannibalism, insect wars, cluster lizards, sex slaves, being ground up and fed to a gigantic dragonfly for fuel, dismemberment, robot arms (!), alien carrots that take over your body through, uh, your sphincter - even though the show is a kind of comedy, I don’t think I’d be laughing much.
