The earth has an atmosphere that burns up most meteors as well, we are mostly ocean, so the odds are much lower for one to land near people. Antarctica has many, many meteorites that fall every year and are easy to find because they are black on white snow. You really need to read some books. All this used to be taught in school, so you must be young. Generations under 30 years old are all idiots who went through schools that taught how to butt fuck each other instead of learning science.
