If it is a Town, it is still too big. I am near the unincorporated community of maybe 300 or so that has a ZIP code and my P.O. Box for the last 50+ years. It is too populated, and like everywhere else in America today, it has too many druggie/tweaker thieves. The globalists want us all in hellish Judge Dredd style mega cities, with the rest of Earth locked up.
American has ten times too many police, a hundred times too many people unwilling to take responsibility for their own protection and the consequences of their actions, a thousand times too many politicians who wrongly believe they have the right to tell us how to live, and a million times too many illegal aliens.
The best tee shirt of all YouTube merch comes from OG's Danger show. White printing on black says "Nobody is coming. It's up to you." Any honest cop, including my battle scarred ex-cop wife, will tell you "when police are needed in seconds, they'll be there in minutes." Since the dawn of time, your protection has been YOUR responsibility. Police do not exist to protect you. They have no legal duty to do so. When I undress at night, my .45 goes into a wall holster just back of my night stand. When my wife goes to bed, her .38 goes into her wall holster (her old duty .357 hangs nearby). Free men are armed, slaves are not.
The "American Experiment" was to establish a government which existed only to protect the rights and liberties of the individual. Look how that has turned out. Ignorant people and ignorant jurors have a lot to do with that.
We are headed for a fall. The more rural you are, the better your odds. The more skills you have, the better your odds. The more self sufficient you are, the better your odds. Give it some thought.
