Site selection takes on a new twist when the odds of surviving a zombie apocalypse are among your criteria for choosing a location.

Have you ever wondered how you’d survive if America were overtaken by zombies?

Wonder no more.

Inspired by the CDC’s Zombie Preparedness 101 guide, lawn care services company Lawn Love has ranked 2022’s Best Cities for Surviving a Zombie Apocalypse. Lawn Love compared the 200 biggest U.S. cities on 26 key indicators of zombie invasion-preparedness, such as the share of the living population in poor health and access to “bunkers,” hunting-gear stores, and supermarkets.

Which city came out on top in 2022?

Orlando, FL.

Last year, Huntington Beach earned the top spot as Lawn Love’s 2021 Most Zombie-Resistant City, but the California city has been overtaken by the popular Florida vacation spot. One of the factors that makes Orlando well-prepared to fight off a wave of zombies is plenty of hospitals per capita (No. 30) to contain a disease outbreak. Orlando also ranked first in both the Supplies and Protection categories. Rounding out the top five Best Cities for Surviving a Zombie Apocalypse are Salt Lake City, UT; Honolulu, HI; Portland, OR, and Colorado Springs, CO. Where would you be more likely to join the throngs of the living dead? Here are the five cities where you are the least likely to survive a zombie attack: Sunrise Manor, NV; Paradise, NV; Enterprise, NV; Spring Valley, NV, and Paterson, NJ. (A word of advice: When the Zombie Apocalypse comes down, don’t head to Nevada.)

Lawn Love also asked some experts to share their thoughts on what is most important when fighting the undead. When asked “Where are the best places to seek shelter when on the move?” Thomas J. Duszynski, MPH, a lecturer and epidemiology education director at Indiana University-Purdue University in Indianapolis, offered the following: “In today’s world there are shelters that can be stood up quickly to accommodate the movement of people. The more time to prepare and plan, the better the shelter. You would need/want a place with food, clean water, working toilets and showers and a low population. You would want medical care if needed. There is the joke that the best shelter is a Sam’s Club or Costco. They are generally built out of concrete. They have a lot of food, places to sleep, water and you need a membership to get in, which the presumption is that zombies wouldn’t have a membership and be turned away. But thinking about that, would everyone else go there? Then resources become more challenging when everyone is clamoring for them. Also, when dealing with an infectious disease-causing agent, the fewer people around you, the less likely disease transmission can occur.” Visit the Lawn Love blog to read more experts’ takes on survival in the face of a zombie apocalypse.

What are some basic needs and wants?

Food, water, clothing, and shelter are all needs. If a human body does not have those things, the body cannot function and will die. Wants are things that a person would like to have but are not needed for survival. A want may include a toy, expensive shoes, or the most recent electronics.

Needs and wants are an important part of an economy. Needs are things that people require to survive. Food, water, clothing, and shelter are all needs. If a human body does not have those things, the body cannot function and will die. Wants are things that a person would like to have but are not needed for survival. A want may include a toy, expensive shoes, or the most recent electronics. Both needs and wants must be purchased with money. Sometimes people confuse their wants and needs and spend too much of their money on things they want. Then they do not have enough money for their needs. A budget can help people figure out what they can afford. A budget is a plan that lists how much money a person has and all the needs and wants that cost money. This list makes it easy to make sure that all a person’s needs are purchased before the wants. If there is no money left in the budget after the needs are taken care of, the wants will have to wait.
