Greetings from Oregon. I've been "prepping" for several years and have quite a few supplies, but I recently moved from Southern California to Oregon for a variety of reasons, including anticipation of our economic collapse (which may even include our infrastructure), and consequently I am temporarily in an awkward position because most of my preps are in a rented storage warehouse. 
I was hoping to find some like minded people near enough geographically that we could get together occasionally, even if only for moral support. It's somewhat depressing to be the only one (as far as I know) in this entire area that's concerned about the impending economic and most likely societal collapse. Everyone goes about their business with their expensive toys as though happy days are ahead, and yet there are vacant and foreclosed houses littering the landscape of almost everywhere I look. It would be nice to know a few people in person I could trust during the collapse just in case it isn't as mild as the "Great Depression" so if there are any members of this forum in my area, you are invited to contact me.
I'm temporarily renting a house in Troutdale, Oregon with the intent of finding a house in a defensible or "survivable" neighborhood somewhere around the Portland area. If there are any other members who might be able to clue me in on some outlying areas where there are other gun owners that would be reasonably protected from what might be roving and pillaging mobs of angry and hungry ill prepared "sheeple" (or ex-sheeple) please let me know.
I would much rather live elsewhere, but unfortunately I must remain reasonably close to a hospital and rheumatologist because I have rheumatoid arthritis and have to see my rheumatologist every two months for a checkup and blood tests, etc. I realize this puts me in a bad position (ie; a dead duck!) when TSHTF, but I have no choice but to make do as best I can.
Note to the Admin: I would like to be placed on the map please.
