You couldn't live there. It is too hot. When Pompeii erupted in 79 AD historians have researched the heat. Using the skeletons of the people who were there they found bones that were charred by heat. So, they did an experiment to see how hot it would need to be to have bones burn like the ones in Pompeii. What they found is that the bones burned at 900 degrees. That is pretty hot and at 900 degrees your brain would boil in your skull. No, you don't want to live on or near a volcano when it erupts. Vesuvius is one of the most active volcanos in the world and over a million people live around it. When it erupted in 79AD it covered 65 miles of city, farms, and land. The coastline was changed forever and historians are still learning about the events of that day.
