Of course there are. Any where you have snakes, you usually have a venomous one. However, I have lived here the majority of my life and I can say they aren't really a problem. I have only encountered a few and they don't want much to do with people. Just ignore them and you may not even see one, assuming you don't want to see them. However, if you are coming to research them, I'm sure you could find plenty if you know where to look, but I suggest staying out of the townships and such, avoid homes. They can be harder to find but if you have time, putting things like tarps up a little off the ground and checking on it every once in awhile can yield some pretty interesting creatures.
