My preparedness ideology tends to lean toward carrying a light load and being able to maneuver as opposed to the typical hunkering down. I live on the outskirts of town, though and if things did get bad, it might be in y best interest to relocate, practically.
That said, my minimalist setup includes a few lifestraws, firestarters, LED flashlights and lanterns, a few gas masks and some Tyvek chem suits (you never know, there's a lot of industry around here and large scale chemical spills do happen). I've got a few good knives, trust my life to KaBar, a small gasoline generator, drone with a camera, med kit in the truck and in the house.
Food-wise, I've got about two weeks worth of non-perishables that'll feed four individuals and I keep around the same in a supply of water.
plenty of paracord, freshly stocked tacklebox, assortment of tools, CB radio, batteries, batteries and more batteries.
Firearms and ammo, I'm good, got enough to hunt if needed or put up a defense against most practical threats.
Now that I own my own home, I may eventually work toward getting it a little more setup to hunker down in if that's an option but for me, personally, I like the idea of being versatile, mobile and light. I may build a small, offroad camper here soon.
