    From a geological perspective, living near a mountain landscape can offer a number of advantages that would be attractive.

    Climate: Mountains can have a significant impact on the climate. Due to their effect on the weather, you can have a very wet climate on the side that blocks rain or a desert and dry conditions on the opposite.

    Natural Resources: The higher mountain is, the colder it gets. Many experience abundant amounts of snow and ice formation. As the seasons change, the atmosphere around a mountain warms and cools. When it is cool, snow and ice forms at lower levels of the mountain. As the mountain warms, the snow found at lower levels of the mountain begins to melt and is captured in rivers and streams that originate from it. These streams and rivers can provide water to areas that are dry and sustain forests. The mountain acts like a regulator for supplying resources.

    Mountains can also have a significant effect on weather phenomenon like Hurricanes and Thunderstorms.
