You can prevent raids (except for 2 I believe, those are 'You are being Hunted" and one other) by not having any craft stations or camp fires in the area. My lesser defended outposts, I remove the workbench after I am done building and remove campfire also.

I have had raids where there was only a bridge because I had multiple workbenches there. So I remove workbenches after I finish a bridge as well.

You can't have the best of both worlds. What I mean is that workbenches have a radious that prevent normal spawns. So you could carpet an area with them to prevent regular spawns, but then you get raids nearby instead.

that's correct but events trigger is 64x64 on valheim wiki, so you can fit that area with torches and or workbenches and it does prevent it

It won't prevent the event from happening but you can cover enough area and not have anything spawn.

Much larger area than the event trigger zone.
