Wow MB888, I'm super jelly! Someday I'll show you pictures of mine and we can have a dick measuring contest.

In all seriousness, that's great.

Dr_Fwd, maybe that sort of hierarchy would be appropriate, idk... Just think of it like an expensive home owner's association with defensible lookout posts and a work requirement like a lot of private membership ranges have. Everyone would be responsible for themselves, their own food, and their own shelter etc, but everyone would have to take turns with security (border patrol) once in a while.

I started or contributed to a thread about this a while back, it's an intriguing concept to me that I think could be made to work with careful planning. I think that if the SHTF communities would band together, much like in Lights Out.. and some prior planning, organization, and stockpiling as a community could make a huge difference. I think there are enough people serious enough about this that if there were such a community homes in it would sell.

But anyway, BACK to the topic at hand... it occurs to me that an APARTMENT complex, especially if well designed, or at least full of like-minded people, could make a pretty good SHTF location. Any thoughts on this?

I think each house in the neighborhood would have it's own underground bunker and everyone would take care of themselves. The only point of having a community is to share knowlege, skills, and protection. A lot of this is applicable now as well. I would love to live in a neighborhood where I knew everyone was armed all the time. Crime rate of 0% would be a good advertising point...

To build a community, even a small one, it takes a lot of money, effort and most of all a tight core group. We tried... we got the money and effort part done..but it took us months each time to come up with a group decision. After a year or so, everyone scattered.

So now NOONE shares my bunker!!
