This is one of the bigger questions
Where should one BE if there is a collapse
I agonized over this
so I got out of Orlando Florida after 23 years there
a nightmare scenario of a place...I wont go into all the reasons here
a friend had a retreat, very secluded in western north carolina mountains, 3,000 feet elevation
very, very rural
unfortunately, he lost it when he couldn't make a balloon payment
then I have a female friend who has an 84 acre hidden farm in central virginia
me
I chose a small town on the border of virginia and north carolina
well over an hour to Raleigh
and 2 hours to Richmond
not THAT far but STILL outside the cities
my town has 1,100 people
I know quite a few of them, many good people
surrounded by farms and farmland
away from the
LINES OF DRIFT (Rawles)
the best confirmation of my choice is oddly a fiction book
by James Howard Kunstler
I know, its fiction, but he wrote a pioneering non-fiction book
THE LONG EMERGENCY...this will now be controversial with gas here now 2.19 a gallon, but fracking companies now all going broke, their bonds blowing up with oil prices so low...a whole BIG discussion
anyway, THEE book that convinced me of small town away from the city was
WORLD MADE BY HAND
anybody read either of them??
