There are so many factors to consider when choosing where to buy a home—average home price, proximity to work, and obviously the odds of surviving a zombie apocalypse. That's why Estately Real Estate Search mapped out which states are the safest to live in if an army of the undead were to suddenly rise from their graves in search of brains to eat. To do this, we ranked each U.S. state from 1-50 using the following five criteria, and then averaged the results to create our final ranking.

  • Fewest people per square mile
  • Gun owners per capita
  • Percentage who are cremated instead of buried
  • Percentage of population that is physically active
  • Interest in the zombie media genre

    How will my city survive a mass Black Lives Matter protest, you ask?

    Well, San Diego should be okay, they have a shitload of White and Hispanic Marines with guns and ships to seek refuge offshore.

    L.A., though, will be utterly fucked unless we fly in more armed Koreans to the local rooftops. Why bother, though? That's one hell-hole which should be nuked from orbit.

    That should be parts of San Diego will be OK. El Cajon (meth capitol of the world) is already full of meth zombies, as long as they don't wander next door to Lakeside (the Texas of Cali) which is full of shitkicking cowboys. North Park, you might catch something worse than zombie fever. Wander further south and you run into the zombies migrating across the border. I'd personally head east to Anza-Borrego desert.
