Nuclear powered carrier ship in the middle of the ocean.

A shopping mall, so I can pick up a flashlight, duct tape some jewelry on it and use it as a lightsaber

My house is pretty good for a zombie apocalypse, i'll probably just hang out here.

any, I'm gonna say the Fortress of Solitude from Superman

The local library Archives.

The Principality of Sealand.

With my family.

I choose to secure all of North America.

The old food warehouse I worked at. They installed 1100+ solar panels on the roof to offset the huge cost of running giant freezers during summer. There is more than enough food for not only making food for myself but also to trade with other people to make a community work. Also only a few entrances for security.

The public library.

Zombies are too braindead to be interested in books, they will never feel any need to come check one if there are people hiding. Plus, I would have enough books to read while I watch them mindlessly walk around on the streets, interested in nothing. A bit like our modern days zombies: smartphone users ;)

It really depends on a lot of things.

In almost any crisis any population centre is going to be an absolute shit show.

OTOH being by yourself in the wilderness is also challenging. Even if you know a place with good fishing or something where you think you could support yourself - you probably couldn't when 1,000 other people are thinking of the same place.

You absolutely need a good local supply of fresh water, and of course protein.

The only place that satisfies all of these criteria is a Farm or small farming community.

You'd need to offer yourself as security / labor / slave to a farmer. Assuming a large influx of refugees from cities and no supply of diesel they will need security and diesel.

probably a farm with solar power

At my home. It's where all my supplies are. I have just enough that I can just sit out the first few weeks of absolute chaos and then I'll see where I go from there. I'd probably try and find a remote summer cabin somewhere by a lake which hopefully has solar power already installed but if not, I'll figure it out. Main thing that it's remote and has a wood stove and access to food and water. Hopefully in two floors as well so that I can collapse the stairs and sleep safely upstairs.

The Rockies. There’s already a low population in a lot of areas, millions of acres set aside as wilderness, fresh water and game, wood, steep terrrain, fire lookouts/ranger cabins/cabins/abandoned mines. Winter show would also slow/hinder zombies and make for an easier kill. The downside is that I know I wouldn’t be the only one and the main threat would be all the other backcountry survivalists heading for the hills and defending their resources.

Decommissioned mine. Large enough to house a community, plenty of space for garden beds / housing inside to minimize risky trips into the outside world, solar panels can be run from the mine entrance or up through air shafts. Limited entrances and exits make it easily defensible, and mine shafts can be turned into simple traps for the undead.

*hole

A mall. Obviously not a great survival choice, but it sure would he fun!
