If you're in good shape, pick a city in the south where the obesity rate is around 30%. Plenty of slow-moving out of shape food to keep the hordes satiated.

None. All the cities would be overrun by zombies.

Easy choice. St.Louis, we have many caves to hide in and many guns.

Minneapolis gets my vote. The Zombies will be frozen solid fours months of the year so plenty of time to stock up.

Ask any of us old timers what is was like doing Civil Defense drills in case of Nuclear attack in the 1950's. I remember a Friday night football game in 1962 during the Cuban missile crisis. We all expected a mushroom cloud before halftime.

I don't know, people seem to be doing decently in the Atlanta area on The Walking Dead. Too bad we lost the CDC though, that was a major downer.

I'd hope in the event of a real apocalypse spurned from a disease, the CDC will not self-destruct and some researchers could stay and keep researching.

Gun noise just attracts more zombies. Melee weapons are where it's at.

Anyway, northern cities are the place to be. Zombies slow down to a crawl so you can spend your winter 'cleaning up house'.

Anywhere with high-rise buildings. Oh, and perhaps harsh weather conditions.

New York City would be a deathtrap. Too many people = too many zombies. Subways would be a no go, projects/buildings would be overrun. Maybe if people bunkered in the Intrepid, just offshore? Still, would need a ton of supplies.
