Survival: The Inevitible Zombie Attack.

Step 2Location, Location, Location.

Location, Location, Location.
Location will be very important. You must decide if your house will be sufficient for fortification. If you are in an apartment I would suggest moving on to the next step, Pimp My Ride. Otherwise, decide if your house could stand up to hordes of corpses pushing against it. If you decide to stay, you will need to fortify, namely windows, doors, and any other entrance or weak spot. If you are staying, hopefully you read this and have already purchased loads of plywood, 2x4s, nails, and Spam.
Food will be an issue if you camp out because you probably won't be able to drive anywhere without fear of attracting attention. Go for the college diet of Raman, macaroni and cheese, Spam, bologna, or MREs if you can get them. Farming your own food would be great but outside is dangerous, unless you can secure your yard. One recommendation would be to redirect your gutters into a barrel or storage tank for plenty of drinking water. Lucky for me I have a well, but still would need a manual pump. I would look at staying in your home as a temporary situation. Nomadic life is the life for survival, our ancestors did it and so will I.

Why does everyone stay in the city? I live in the country, and our area is perfect for warding off an attack or avoiding an impending one.

appartment buildings might be safer.  zombies cant climb, so if you destroy the stairs from the first floor, and stop the elevator on one of the upper floors, you eliminate the possibility of them following you upstairs.

But then you are stuck upstairs, wise guy! But I o agree that buildings are safer. A tent is useless... I would suggest barricading somewhere, then somehow finding a group to help you survive and only then to find a nice place at the wild to live in - make sure that there is always someone to stay awake while you sleep.

Yea, you can jump down the broken stairs, and you may be able to find a ladder, if yuo are lucky.
