“Everyone in the surrounding areas know that’s a wealthy area...so IMO it would be a target for the gangs of bad guys. And they’d be real happy to take off in that RV.... Better IMO that you get yourself a place in the hill country to bug out to.”

Bad guy groups in inner city Dallas (the closest inner city) are far away, 20 plus miles. They will stay in their inner city and areas just out of that area.

What you say about the bus is true if the wealthy people in this large subdivision go feral. It is parked in part of our large driveway, totally seeable to those passing the hose. One day, two men came to the front door and asked if we wanted to sell the bus. I told them no. Those two men were not living in this subdivision.

“place in the hill country”
I have a couple of very good friends (known them for many years) who live in the hill country on a high hill. At the bottom of their hill and down a road there is a high gate and no one can get in unless they use a phone there and call them for permission to come in.

My friends would have to hit a button for the gate to open. The intruders could climb the gate but couldn’t get their vehicle inside. If they did manage to tear down the gate, there is only one road up that hill to that house. My friends can see down that road, plus they have two very large dogs that would tell them someone is heading that way. Those dogs are Australian Shepherd dogs and you better be okayed by my friends or those dogs will take your head off.

They are preppers, too, and he’s good at hitting a target and so is she.

They own a large amount of acres around their location so no one is close to them. If worse came to worse, we could go there with my preps and with us four, make a good stand against anyone who might get into their location.

Back to this big house:’
No one knows we have any preps and we wouldn’t make that known if we have to use them. Unless these wealthy people go from door to door to invade since they are starving, plus have no water, hoping to find water/food, they wouldn’t come here. They can get to water since a finger of a lake is within short walking distance, but they won’t have a way to sanitize it, can’t even boil it if power is off.

They might have a barbecue grill but I would bet it is a propane tank grill and their propane wouldn’t last long.

If a collapse happens, these wealthy people won’t be any better off than poor people - a lack of water/food puts ALL people in the same category - all dying.

I hope to hell a collapse doesn’t happen between September - December.
