If something bad happens this city will burn within 48 hours, all cities within a week. There will be a mass exodus into the suburbs and surrounding areas. Without having a hardened target with large security force staying in place will not be an option for long if you are even remotely close to a city.

As it stands my plan is to grab my go bag at the first sign of trouble and get out before panic sets in. I won't even bother trying to drive, I will go on foot. I will follow the train tracks from my city up to the mountains, this will keep me off roads and largely away from people. I will only move at night until I get out of population centers which I can do in 48 hours. I will be out of the city in 20 minutes of leaving. I will try to find an unoccupied secluded cabin or dwelling up in the mountains. There are a lot of such places and chances are the owners will never make it to them, if they arrived I would leave if they asked me to do so. There is a ski resort way up on the mountain with a large cabin at the very top, it would be very difficult to get to for most people. This is one place I have in mind.

This is just a starting plan to get me to a safe place away from immediate danger. I think the ultimate goal would be to join a group.

This is my very loose plan in the event of a societal collapse.

Have you thought about this? What will you do?

If you read the survival literature short term leaving can be better in the early chaos which is the worst of it. But long term you are fucked and have zero advantages left. Long term the people who made it past the first 30 days become the threat and have major advantages. Usually their only problem is needing to leave for something and exposing themselves. When you do need to finally leave you are physically way better off than had you left in the beginning. But will be threatened way more by what you describe than if you still had a position to hold.

Holding a position in any city will be impossible.

False. That’s why plenty did it in Yugoslavia. And many other cases. This isn’t even war. This is economic collapse and normies.
