Yeah. Vt is more community oriented. We really dont take kindly to preppers who move in from the big city and do wierd shit in the woods. We already have the ruby ridge people.

Texas is probably more of the type of place you should go to do that.

Edit: also I really dont think you are thinking this through. You are a rich long islander. Buying a vacation home in bumfuck vermont that you plan to ride out the apocalypse in. All the people in back woods vermont know each other and know who their neighbors are. They are armed to the teeth

What do you think is going to happen when they realize their asshole solitary neighbor has a ton of food and supplies.

Yes starting my own farmstead is weird shit in the woods. I'm not some prepper, I just see Vermont as being one of the safest places to move my family to. My grandfather was a farmer and he taught me a lot and after a long career in IT, would love to get back to nature for my retirement and not have to worry about feeding myself next time some COVID like disaster comes around. You couldn't pay me to move down south for a whole plethora of reasons.
