Tips and Tricks for Urban Survival

I'd like to start a good thread on actual urban survival. I.e being in a big city without the ability to bug out to the wilderness.

First tip and most important and obvious: PREP PREP PREP
I highly recommend at least a 2000 calorie per day per person storage for at least one year. this should give enough time to find more resources and let the majority of people weed themselves out

Secondly, prep accordingly. I see a lot of people buying woods heavy equipment who plan to bug in within the city. This is just a waste of time and energy for yourself and your group as well as money and space. Get the basics for just in case.

Third, arm yourself accordingly. Why have a .308 if you're going to be within a city? Get a pistol, shotgun and ar15/ak47. A 22lr wouldn't hurt either for quieter shooting of small game and the like.

Fourth and highly crucial, locate your future water source. Whether that be in the form of a creek or river or finding a nice building to collect rain water from. Water is the fundamental of all life and you need to make sure you can get it.

Fifth comes wild game in and near cities. It will mainly be small mammals such as squirrel, mice, and other small rodents as well as birds. If a river is near by, fishing is definitely an option. I've actually invested in a nice .177 co2 rifle to go after the small game. Stock up on pellets and the co2 canisters and you're set for some silent kills. I highly recommend one for urban survival since shooting a gun off, no matter how small, in the big city can mean life or death

I'll leave it as is for now and let others chime in. I always see people posting about bugging out from the city and into the wild, but that's not always a possibility for everyone. And I'd like to think we all deserve a fighting chance
