Do you mind high voltage line close to your home?

It’s 20 meters away.

Lighten up man!

No big deal as long as it doesn't buzz throughout the night, and there is no utility pole on your property. You won't notice it.

Resale on that is terrible.

Google KissMyPiss Nov 13, 2018

Yeah, if the pole is on your property. In some parts of the Bay Area (San Francisco), power lines are mostly unavoidable.

Free electricity!!

The strong electric magnetic field created around the high voltage line is not good for you. Long term exposure will cause brain cancer. Also, in a hurricane hits your area and knocks down the power line, it will fall on your house and fry everything.

The latter solves the prior...

I am more concerned about earthquake than hurricane

I have a power line running behind my house and have researched EMF or specifically very low frequency EMF thoroughly. I even obtained a copy of EMF analysis from the utility company. Bottom line - no link has been found between these lines and risks of cancer (leukemia specifically). Household appliances generate much higher EMFs than these power lines and pose no threat.

When researching a topic like this it is important to bear in mind that disproving a negative is really really hard.

Yes if you use a meter to check kitchen appliances generate much higher EMF. So even if there is a link... there’s other sources to worry about more than power lines.

well it will be difficult sell your home later - mind that.

This should be a poll

Amazon Amznnn Nov 13, 2018

I wouldn’t do it... I’ve seen several ‘random’ diagnoses of leukemia of kids who live under power lines. Call me crazy but it ain’t worth the risk to me.
