Turbo, electricity would go down way before anything else. You wouldn't even have light at night unless you had a generator. No internet, no plumbing, no lights, no phones, no gasoline, no nuffin.
That's basically what I meant by "without maintenance". I'd imagine people would try to keep electricity flowing for as long as they could, especially the military, but that would be only in small pockets throughout the country. I'd either shoot you on the spot Yep, we're good.

I vote for the somewhere in the North, like the Dakotas or Montana, or maybe Canada even. Few people, good amount of cattle, and depending on the cause and modes of infection of the outbreak the cold environment might help prevent spread of the disease.
Six months might be too long. I'd say it would take about two months for the infected to move into the larger cities and kill off their food source, at which point they'd start moving into rural areas, making travel difficult. Maybe four months.

Alright...I agree the north would be best. I'm used to living in the cold...you sure you could handle the chilly climes?

I think electricity.. and basically all services would go down very quickly. I dont think anyone would be too worried about others if this happened.

If you plan on surviving at all, you are going to need atleast one other person

Yes, but those two people aren't going to go to work in the middle of a zombie infested area to repair the major cable that went cold. Their boss isn't going to invest what little money has left after the global economy collapses into making sure his company survives. Everyone would team up with their closest and say **** everyone else. I think **** would get real crazy real quick.

I'm thinking a place like Hawaii would be perfect. There are rural farming areas for growing crops and for farm animals, there willbe a limited amount of zombies to kill off, nice weather (aside from humidity) mountainous regions, and unless zombies learn t sail or drive boats, you'll be isolated for as long as you want.

I love the cold. I'm moving north when I graduate. I'm thinking a place like Hawaii would be perfect.

Good luck getting to Hawaii.

**** yeah! Where I live, there would a cornucopia of weapons to scavenge and take down those infested hordes. I could literally grab thousands if guns within a half mile radius of my house.
No sh*t. We're set. My house alone has two handguns, four shotguns, and at least five rifles (with scopes), not to mention enough ammunition to last me a few years by myself, and I know how to use them. This is one aspect of Southern life I'm somewhat grateful for. Then, it will really be survival of the fittest. I would be more scared of what the remaining people would do, rather than the zombies.
Mhm. I don't plan on shooting too many zombies, but once resources get scarce, I would fully expect to take out people. You can outrun zombies... as long as they aren't I Am Legend-type mutants. That's amateur s hit right there. It's all about running them over with a truck with a V8 engine.

Hawaii would suck tbh, n o where to go if you're trapped.
Rural Montana, I've always wanted to live there anyways

 Um, staunch evolutionist scientists will tell you there is no scientific evidence that evolution exists.
