I opened NRK just as they reported that, I was really terrified since I wanted to get a land near a river in future but I feel like it's worth rethinking that
What? That doesn't make sense. Even in Norway, quick clay is relatively rare. Most areas around rivers, lakes and the sea are absolutely safe to build and live on.
Build your house on a rock. The above is correct that it is somewhat rare, but still. It does happen, it's unfortunate and unnecessary. Don't remember the place, but it's that long time ago ≈10 people or so died in their sleep. Building close the where even rock slides could pose a potential threat, it's relatively safe to live in Norway.
