You could go to Philadelphia, because according to WC Fields, they won't be aware that the world ended for at least two years.

We’re 95 minutes (by car) / three day walk from our ‘right place to live sanctuary.’

Said journey supported by bug out kits, 1500 rounds [distributed among/carried by four people] and prior planning.

NOLA is on his map?

I think it’s already been established that you don’t want to be there during a collapse.

This is messed up. You can easily survive freezing temps if you have a cozy cabin and plenty of available firewood.

Cool. I could load up my boat and head north through the Mobile Bay delta where there is plenty of fresh water, vegetation, and game.

You can actually look at places where economies *have* collapsed to see how people will behave, such as Weimar Germany, Zimbabwe, North Korea, and Argentina.

It's unlikely to get worse than what those people saw.

Moreover, a large collapse will be at least somewhat incremental...you'd see one area fall before another...and be able to learn how people are going to react to this new crisis.

But other than the above, most of the apocalyptic fantasy is that suddenly we are free men again...with no burdensome government and corporate rules...living as rugged individuals instead of as a collective.

A pleasant fantasy, but the experiences of Zimbabwe and Argentina suggest different realities.

If I remember correctly, from my inferior public school system history, quite a few people were able to survive in areas north of the frost line well before public utilities were available. My parents property backs up against the River of No Return Wilderness area in North Idaho. Plenty of water, plenty of game, plenty of wood for a cabin and a cozy fire, and very few people.

While I prefer the comfort of S. TX I can certainly imagine surviving close to the Canadian Border without any problems.

I own a rental house in Pinehurst, NC....

According to this map....appears I've made a reasonable and safe choice!

The analysis given is wrong and does not account for water borne diseases such as malaria which would become a serious problem. One of the reasons the pilgrims landed in Massachusetts was that it was north of the area that was known to harbor water borne diseases and the Massachusetts had one twentieth the number of deaths from water borne diseases of the Cheasapeake area.

The analysis presented might kill you.

If SHTF, I am heading North for this reason.

I live in AR, which is among the areas he listed as good. A friend of mine at church has a cabin I know about and I briefly considered it since it was near a river and thus there’d be a steady supply of fish, but almost everyone at church knows about it and I’m sure he’d have his own plans for it in such an event.

I’ve settled on either making a run for Texas or going up to the Buffalo River. I need to learn a bit about both before I make up my mind.
