You, J.C. have found that spot where the savages will just say well hell no I ain't goin' there. Your tribe may repopulate the earth.

LOL I love these threads.

I don't live in the suburbs. But around here the Lexington urbanites have no interest in running around out in the countryside--and it's not without good reason. Most of Kentucky is rural. The rural folks really don't care much for the people in Lexington. It's been that way for a long, long time.

It's something you learn if you move to Lexington from the sticks--like I did back in the 70s.

I don't make it a point to tell the people out here that I moved here from Lexington. Nothing good comes from it.

Hahaha!

I would believe that.


Like moving east in Montana from Kalispell.

You just don't tell people that.

Hagakure, Book 1:

“The way of the Samurai is found in death…This is the substance of the Way of the Samurai. If by setting one’s heart right every morning and evening, one is able to live as though his body were already dead, he gains freedom in the Way. His whole life will be without blame, and he will succeed in his calling.”

Find a quiet place wirh water available, where you can raise a garden and store supplies and be happy. Look for good neighbors.
Otherwise see above.

Yep. If you think you can hide from what is coming you are fooling yourself.

My wife grew up in McCreary County, KY. It's just down on the KY/TN border.

It took the better part of a decade for me to start fitting in. I had the wrong last name (it was furn sounding) I had the wrong accent. I was the wrong religion (Methodist was not Protestant enough). It took the passing of my Mother in Law to really get them to realize I was an alright kind of guy. Taking care of her at the end showed them I was of the right stuff.

The Big South Fork Region is one of those places where you can go in pretty easy, but getting out is the problem. You have to have everything in one sock before you open your mouth. It is the last place I would want to bluster into. However, with the proper attitude and the proper family connections, it is the safest place in the world that I have found.

The county where my farm is on the other end of the Commonwealth. It is cosmopolitan compared to KYHillChick's home. However, it has somewhat the same vibe about what it does with its strangers. There are a small number of surnames scattered all over the county. The funny last name thing is not a problem, because Germans settled there in the mid 19th century and my surname is therefore not suspect. Still, it's only been in the past 5 years that I have started to actually mingle with the locals. I finally found a friend that took me around and introduced me. I stopped being regarded as an outsider and my farm stopped being referred to as The Old Ramsey place and instead started being associated with my name. This all took about 20 years.

Somebody once asked how I could feel safe, being so close to Cincinnati. My response went something like "You know when you've got a big ol' fish tank, there's always one big fish that never comes out during the day. However, if you put in new fish, you'll turn off the lights and there'll be no new fish by morning. That's kinda how it is with my neighbors. It's 63 miles from Fountain Square, and by the time you get out my way, it's one little house back a long driveway after another. Inside that house lives a big fish that you never see.

"I live at the end of a 2-mile road, and it's two miles more to the state route, and then 3 more miles to the next, and so on. There are little houses all along the way, and you have to pass all those big fish before you get to my place. You'll never make the whole trip in a day, and after nightfall, you're going to meet the big fish and see what I mean."


One other quick story: In 1862, the Confederates came up this way as part of their move on Cincinnati. The idea was to send a regiment of cavalry to Augusta, ford the Ohio at a shallow spot and then move on Cincinnati from the east. This would be a diversion for the main thrust coming from the south. They made it as far as Augusta, and the Union sent a gun boat down to bombard the Rebs, but it quickly ran out of ammunition and set off back down river to re-supply. The home guard of Augusta, a total of 125, men held off the regiment and their two cannon until the Rebs had to go house to house. Some of the houses were set alight by the action and a few of the guards burned alive. Though the Home Guard finally ran out of ammunition and gave up, it so wrecked the plan that the crossing of the Ohio River at Augusta was called off and the Second Confederate Cavalry of Kentucky had to retreat back south.

This is kind of stuff my neighbors are made of. I don't have any worries.

That is the conundrum. The best places to be totally safe from others are places so inhospitable that nobody wants to live there or even go there. That means harsh living conditions and limited medical, dental and vision care. Is it worth it? Most people will pick some in-between place and call it good. But, if you’ve ever watched those social faux-reality shows where they vote people off the literal or figurative island every week, people’s ethics get very situational and fluid when their butt is on the line.

I'll be damned. For some reason I always thought it was somewhere in the Appalachian Trail. Either way, same still applies but different location with a cabin in the woods.

That’s a great selling point. “Ted Kazinski either did or could have lived here.” I guess that’s substantially better than having Alferd Packer for a neighbor.

Some times you find a spot where you would risk your life to defend your neighbors and vice versa.

You need to worry about the fact that your neighbors have a habit of fighting for the wrong side.

I'd add MN, WI, MI, NM, CO to that list.

Considering adding PA, ME, RI, CT, VT, NH.
Pa is more than good to go. Only filthadelphia and chittsburgh are the issues. Theres a reason the area i reside in is nicknamed pennsyltuckey

I am about an hour from Lexington, pretty rural out where iam, don't see it changing anytime soon, only gripe I have is most of KY is tied into a public water source, not a good thing in my opinion.

America is (supposed to be) a Republic, NOT a democracy. Learn the difference, help end the lie. Fear a government that fears your guns.
