The problem seems to be complacency bias, for the most part. Schools here in the US pretty much stopped teaching history a long time ago, so people have no background knowledge of how common disasters, both human or nature caused, are within recorded history. The ignorance of the population here is staggering. That, and the common action of families to not talk about their earlier relatives in any detail, leaves them fairly clueless.
Add in the sad facts that most females are very resistant to any change that is not a result of increased income, and have also been conditioned to look to the government for help if trouble arrives. They are also very stubborn on the issue of moving away from relatives and friends.
They also have real difficulty understanding the concept of keeping their mouths shut about any preparations for bad times. In this regard, children add further difficulties for OPSEC.

Well there’s your problem.
