Metropolitan areas can change in an instant with a major catastrophe. Hundreds of thousands of people could be gone just as quickly.
Society could be unraveled by any number of scenarios, and it could leave you stranded, without loved ones and desperate to secure food, water and shelter. Escape to the countryside or a remote location may not be feasible. Could you survive in an urban environment if the SHTF and everything you knew was gone?
Rudy Reyes, a veteran Recon Marine, lends his expertise and shows how to survive an urban environment, find resources inside a broken city, all while avoiding other survivors whose interests canât be assumed to align with yours.

“I am so cityscrewed.”
I’m going to save your butt one more time:
Go to Amazon and buy these items:
Cobra Products PST154 4-Way Sillcock Key
With this key, you can get water from the back or side of any large building you pass. Go to the back or side of the building and you will find a water connection. One of the four options on this key will open that connection and water will flow.
Buy Coghlan’s Expandable Water Carrier. This is a two gallon carrier that is flat until you expand it. Put as much water as you want in this carrier.
Buy: St. Dalfour Gourmet On the Go, Ready to Eat— Variety 6 Pack (2-Wild Pink Salmon, 2-Tuna & Pasta, 2-Three Bean
This is delicious food ready to eat - 6 meals (spoon included).
NOW, put that in your car or in a backpack. You will have clean water, a container for the water, and six meals to get you back home.
Normally, I charge $100 to teach someone to save themselves, but for you, I’ll put it on your bill and you can pay it out $1 a month. :o)
very interesting
As I’ve said before, the time to bug out is now, before the SHTF. Move to a rural area.
It would be warm
I’m out in the country.We’ve bought food,water purification system,diesel generators,and fuel,plus weapons and ammo.When the crisis hits,what you have will be all you will have to get through.I figure we’re good for 3 years.
Good. I’m in the country too. Similar set up. Good luck.

I don't agree with this guy's approach, but it does good to spark conversation.
But whatever you do, DON'T PANIC!
IF YOU PANIC, WE'LL ALL BE KILLED!!!!
Cool. Let's all go together!
And for some of us that is not a matter of choice!
I think that to know the people in your neighborhood and have some food set aside is not a bad thing. I do not think that the coming bad times will be uniformly bad in all areas.
If you are far enough away from the detonation, and have a shelter that has thick enough walls, and food/water for 2 weeks, then you can survive the radiation.
Remembering from the old civil defense data from the 1960s, you should wait at least 2 weeks before leaving your shelter, and even then it should be limited.
A corner of the basement that is underground, can be adapted. Just add very thick walls (6ft for concrete) to the corner and a partial wall in front of the doorway (Radiation doesn’t turn corners), and then overhead. The 2 walls that are underground in the corner don’t need additional shielding.
