Where would you start rebuilding?

rebuilding "society" will take a long time, decades maybe even a century if everything has been reduced to a basic level, first it would be "subsistence" farming-only growing what you can to feed yourself, large surpluses wont be available for a long time. forget cities, they will be uninhabitable and of no use to anyone, people-if they have any sense- will be living near where the food is produced so transporting wont be an issue-everything will be local.
