I live in the far north part of a booming metropolis. We aren’t rural but about a close to the ‘edge’ as possible but still in the city. Of course there are security concerns, however due to family commitments and taking care of my elderly mother- this is where we shall remain. Security is in place, we are friendly with neighbors and have a plan with like minded folks. Food, medical, sundries essentials are stocked and e can currently go several months to a year. Our challenge is water. I am in the low desert of Arizona. There is a pool in my yard that will assist with some daily needs. There is water stored in every spare crevice in my home, but in the end when it is 118 degrees for a month straight and we might already be several months into SHTF- that is my biggest looming fear/concern.
