Are tornadoes a frequent occurrence in your region?
Do tornadoes affect where you live?
In order to ask if tornadoes occur where they live, you can ask:
Are they common?
Are they a frequent occurrence?
Common and frequent occurrence have the same meaning. It is whether it happens often or not.
In order to ask about the place where someone lives, you can say:
Region
Area
City
Country
Also the word tornadoes depends on where they live.
Tornado is interchangeable with typhoon, hurricane, whirlwind depending on the part of the world.
I hope that helps!

「竜巻が起こる」は "have tornados" と表現することができます。"have" は、ここでは「〜を持つ」→「〜がある」となります。
"occur" は「(偶然に)起こる、発生する」という意味で、病気・事件・事故などに使われることが多いです。竜巻のような自然現象にはほぼ使われません。
「地域」は "area" と表します。
"in the area (where/that) you live" の部分は、関係代名詞"where/that"が省略されていて、「あなたが住んでいるところの地域」となります。"in your area" と言っても良いでしょう。

"Are tornadoes common here?"
If you wanted to ask someone if tornados occur in the region that they live in, you could ask them any of the following: "Are tornadoes a common occurrence in the region in which you live?", "Do you have tornados in the area you live often?" or "Are tornadoes common here?" All three of these questions will get you a direct answer to your question.
相手の住んでいる地域で竜巻が起きるのか確認したいなら次のように言えます。
"Are tornadoes a common occurrence in the region in which you live?"(あなたの住んでいる地域では竜巻はよく起きますか)
"Do you have tornados in the area you live often?"(あなたの住んでいる地域では竜巻はよく起きますか)
"Are tornadoes common here?"(ここでは竜巻はよく起きますか)
どれも、単刀直入に尋ねています。
*Do tornadoes occur here? - This means you would like to know if they ever experience any tornadoes.
*Are tornadoes common here?- If something is common it means that it happens there often and it occurs a lot.
This is the simplest way of asking someone if tornados occur in the region where they live. You could swap 'do you get' with 'do you suffer from' or 'are you affected by' and it would all mean the same. You could also swap 'where you live' with 'in your area' or 'in (region)' and it would all be the same.
これは、相手の住んでいる地域で竜巻が起きるかどうか尋ねる最もシンプルな言い方です。
'do you get' を 'do you suffer from' や 'are you affected by' に置き変えることもできます、意味は変わりません。
また、'where you live'(あなたの住んでいる所)を 'in your area' や 'in (region)' に置き換えてもいいです、どれも同じ意味になります。
