No. The reality is that 75% of Earth's recorded tornadoes occur in the United States. The United States is one of few countries to actively monitor and survey tornadoes within its borders, so most tornadoes that strike the U.S. are recorded. In most other countries the majority of tornadoes likely never get recorded, resulting in highly inaccurate statistics.
The U.S. gets 75% of all recorded tornadoes. This is misleading however as many countries do not keep records of their tornadoes and the actual percentage of tornadoes for the U.S. is probably much smaller.
About 75% of recorded tornadoes strike the United States. This is misleading however, as many countries do not keep records of their tornadoes. The actual number of tornadoes outside the U.S. is not known.
Official statistics say 75-80% of tornadoes occur in the U.S. This is very misleading, however, as most countries do not keep detailed records of their tornadoes. The vast majority of tornadoes outside the U.S. are never documented. So, the real percentage is not known.
Yes, tornadoes can occur in the southwest US, particularly in states like Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and New Mexico. While tornadoes in this region may not be as common as in the central US, they can still pose a significant threat to life and property.
The United States averages about 1200 tornadoes per year, which would work out to about 3600 tornadoes in an average 3-year period.
The U.S. gets 75% of all recorded tornadoes. This is misleading however as many countries do not keep records of their tornadoes and the actual percentage of tornadoes for the U.S. is probably much smaller.
75 percent of recorded tornadoes happen in the U.S. The U.S. probably has a much smaller percentage of the world's actual tornado count. This is because the U.S. keeps detailed records on the tornadoes that occur within its borders. Many other countries do not keep such records, and often only the most significant tornadoes are reported.

Official records indicate 75 to 80 percent of the world's tornadoes occur in the U.S. This statistic, however, is highly inaccurate as it only counts recorded tornadoes. The U.S. portion of the world's tornadoes is probably much smaller. The United States is a wealthy nation with plenty of resources to track down almost every tornado that touches down within its borders, including minor ones that do no more than topple a few trees. Many other countries do not conduct tornado surveys, resulting an many, if not most tornadoes going unrecorded. Tornadoes that touch down in very remote areas are also unlikely to be recorded.
