what to lose ...BOV....or your life ?

My wife and I will be "sheltering in place" in our town of 2000 people, 35 miles away from a city of 30,000 and 80 miles away from a city of 500,000. Our next-door neighbor is a retired USMC Sgt. Maj. Next to him is a retired Army sgt. The entire neighborhood is well prepped, as is most of the rest of the town. It's going to take some heavy numbers and firepower for a gang to even get into the city limits, and I'd estimate that the gang members' chances of getting out again are somewhere between nil and none.

If we can get our neighbors all on the same page, I feel staying put is the best choice. Only in case of radiation or some other factor should we plan to bug out. Refugees historically have never done well in bad times.
