the urban areas are where lots of businesses are but not all manufacturing plants are located there. Those tend to be outlieing. Some larger cities like Cleveland and COlumbus have plenty of plants and factories within the general corporation limits. But northeast Ohio is a mixed bag. The radicals are in the cisty and some of the suburbs. Most of the people I meet and political signs NOT in the the urban centers are conservative. The pockets of lefties seem to be mostly urban areas. Dayton, for example is a liberal bastion while just south and east and north of it is very RED.
To get back to the original question though, it is mostly suburban out here with some rural. A couple miles east and it gets really rural.. And it stays that way across the rest of the state in the southern region.
Its never a good idea to threaten or act threatining to people who have Large dogs and plenty of firepower at their disposal and within close reach.
That said, if I have a neighbor who is in need of food I will give him food. If he is need of money, I will give him money. I will help within my abilities to do so because that is preciselythe example we find and teaching we have in scripture. We are here to be more like HIM to the best of our abilities.
Being threatened is an entirely different thing. This area and community will protect itself quite well should the SHTF occur. Its not a place anyone would want to start a lethal fight at because it will not end well.
My neighbors are veterans just like me and I have combat experience as do two of them. I am not concerned.
The times of Charles Ingalls were quite different than living today with close neighbors across the street who also have the same values and belieifs in freedom as we do. We also are all prepared for bad things plus my son in law are not far away either.
So the situationis not the same but it is however, well in hand ....Thanks for the concern though and I appreciate the post!
