I live on 37 acres of land but still put my towers near my house. Yes there is always the possibility of a tower crashing into the house, trees could do the same. I chose to do this because we already had trees near the house as well as having it closer so it was cheaper to run coax. Coax aint cheap so I try to save my money where I can.
