Well, if industrial society collapses at this point that's basically it. The survivors will be stuck at some level of techno feudalism, so I guess I'd want to be somewhere along the Appalachians. Good mountain borders, lots of fresh water, potential for ocean trade as things settle out. It's got a lot of upsides.
Possibly somewhere in Michigan could make a good go of it. It's a peninsula surrounded by fresh water. Lots of options for trade , resources, agriculture.
That's about it really, the southwest would basically be hell on earth. The great plains would turn into a dustbowl again. Florida RIP, and the west cost doesn't have enough reliable water supplies. And that's assuming that climate change and drought won't fuck the region, and the next big quake won't wreck every bit of surviving infrastructure.
